Hazel Knight joins the show
MM21 was the first Market Mayhem with Hazel Knight on the microphone. Hazel is one of the best-known fight interviewers in the UK, working for FCC and Kingdom MMA.
Fighters came straight from the cage to sit down with her in front of the Market Mayhem backdrop, so every winner got their moment on camera.
