    Ryan was told to work, he threw punches, it's not anyone's fault Artem couldn't do anything about it besides Artem.

    Don't disagree, but from the promotions perspective, pushing for a spectacle, it wouldn't have been amiss.

    Didn't see that coming at all. Expected a decision. Overall fights were meh tonight but Ferguson Barboza was something special.

    Lovely KO. Glad to see Frankie get the win. Hopefully if/when Conor beats Aldo Frankie gets his shot and loses Conor can say hes wiped out the division as planned :D

    Fastest hands in the division for sure. Chad was unlucky, his game plan was working but he just had a lapse of concentration for a split second and Frankie steps in and floors him.

    Chad sure goes lights out seemingly a lot quicker than anyone else! Was gonna say Frankie in 1 cos he knows I'm also at lights out stage, thanks Frankie!

    What's your point exactly?

    My point is Edger beat Chad far more impressively then McGregor, If Conor beats Aldo i hope he gives Frankie a shot and doesn't move up right away.

    Feck that, the best fighter wins because he's fought the best fight, who cares if Dana doesn't like it. If you don't want to see grappling watch Glory or something. I hate that argument.

    Frankie showing he's the better fighter.
    Who's Chad's best win, Lamas?

    I think Chad might go down to 135, take a run at TJ.

    To be fair he's list to the divusions top 3. Doesn't mean he isn't still 4th.

    He'll work back up the top ten, gate keep for a bit.

    Chad vs Cub is the fight to make. Both good fighters on a skid.

    That's a rough weight cut for Chad though, he'd have to shed some muscle to get there.

    Delighted, Frankie has earned his shot, he's the best featherweight right now aside from Also, he'll offer a massive test to Aldo again and the result this time could be different. Frankie answers every question asked of him.

    I was joking..wasnt suggesting he hang up the gloves yet.

    Hes definitely still got a place in the division and assuming Conor moves up after a defence against Frankie it leaves Chad in a good position for one more run at it.

    Going to go ahead and predict that if Conor wins he'll 'duck' Edgar and move up. Weight cut is already hell for him and Frankie would have Conor stylistically.

    I feel in shock, between Artem's defeat and Frankie's KO, it's a all too much to compute, lol

    Chad just isn't a natural striker.

    Conor is much stronger in this area.

    Id hope there is enough mutual respect there that he would give Frankie the shot he deserves. Dana already screwed Frankie over and he deserves a chance and for it to be against McGregor. Its also a big fight and will bring in the money so im sure Conor can be convinced to go one more if theres a chance to defend it here in Ireland and then move up.
