Right call .... no way Moreno won this fight.

No brainer.

 

[thehealthinspector]

I was wrong twice tonight. Moreno had more than enough for Figueiredo .

who needs heart and will when you have a groin

 

[keko jones]

No way Moreno won this..

I had him 1 point up because I gave him a 10-8 round but I had Fig winnin 3 rounds to 2.

I could see someone doing 9 - 9 round 3.

Right
And
Right

 

[degenerate423]

They gotta run it back.

 

[danger style]

Moreno is that dude

fight of the year. Run it back!

 

[thehealthinspector]

still taking fig in the rematch, idgaf

 

[bapar11]

what a fight!! I had Moreno. run it back

 

[droseph]

If Fig was in the hospital, he most likely got an IV if he had a stomach infection. Isn't that illegal now?

 

[OTG]

flyweight on fire right now... makes me wish mighty mouse, horiguchi, and cejudo were still in the mix.

IV doesn't enhance in anyway. He probably was dehydrated and needed fluids.

But i dont know ...

Inhaler is different because it opens your lungs.

I believe it’s illegal under USADA now but I’m not sure.

Ah so it’s fine if he’s in the hospital.

 

[whtascene]

Lots of talking points in this fight card, Holland's sick KO of Jacare, Oliveira getting the big win over Ferguson, insane how Ferguson didn't tap to that armbar and the flyweight title fight.

Moreno is a stud put up such a good performance

 

[steevoo1]

Card was great from start of the prelims til the main event.

Like I said earlier, this is the start of Figueirdos first rivalry. I did have Moreno winning rounds 2-4 but besides round 5 for Figgy, the rest were real damn close. Glad I threw 10 bucks last minute on a draw for a good come up

Card was a big changing of the guard. Gane, Oliveira, Holland and even Fizeiv with big wins over former champs or top contenders.

 

[3god]

Gonna need a rematch to clear up this “draw.”

Figueiredo won that fight. Only caught the draw due to the lost point.

 

[steevoo1]

Also saw one of the judges had Moreno for round 5. Which was the clearest round to score for Figueirdo. If that judge went the other way, he would've won even with the point deduction.

I didn’t see that. What a joke!

 

[spiderjericho]

So what do you guys think Fig could do better? He was pressing. His jab was on point. But he was a lil sloppy in the stand up. He had no defense for the take downs. And he may have faded a lil.

Best fights of 2020:
Zhang/Joanna
Daico/Moreno
Diamond/Hooker

 

[spiderjericho]

If that Diamond shows up for McGregor, I like the Irish fella but that left better be working...or else it’s going to be a drag out slug fest which Dustin thrives in. Besides the Khabib destruction, he’s been a warrior.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

It's sad to see Tony is done being a contender. Big respect to his run (especially 2015-2017). He was definitely at the top of the division sans Khabib, shame we didn't see that prime Tony vs prime Conor or even prime Dustin

I don't see how things get that much better. He's unraveling tbh. He is his own coach now. He got rid of his nutritionist. He's getting older, turns 37 in a few months. Been through wars

I mean Khabib, Dustin, Justin (again) would probably throttle Tony. Jeez even Hooker might pour it on him. Islam too

 

[spiderjericho]

I think we still have one more big name Ferguson fight. Maybe Hooker?

And he needs to get back to basics. And what led to his 12 wins in the division.

But that fight definitely answered the Khabib/Tony question. Charles was slamming him silly and dominating him on the ground.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I believe Hooker man, that's even a worse matchup for Ferg than Charles

Tony is going to oblige Hooker in boxing range and just absorb major CTE. Hooker's chin probably still granite and isn't going to go down easily. I don't know if Tony even bothers taking it to the mat

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Got 3 guys vying for the next title shot at 125 after the rematch

Cody (I really hope he gives up this idea of fighting at 125)
Askarov
Kape

Any of those guys in a fight would be dope
