And people were calling for a Barbosa bmf title fight lol
I sort of blame it on these “reactions” the forum has, the same crap social media has been paddling for years. Getting reactions is a bit like an addiction after a while and people often post random shit just to get others to react to it. You can actually see that most of the forum will not follow a topic beyond page one. Some will only post on the first page of a topic because getting reaction on subsequent pages is harder. Likewise watching hundreds of fights is very time consuming, easier to just check wikipedia and watch some highlights on youtube.I also honest think a lot of these guys do not actually watch the fight.
Like, some people literally don't watch the fight and just say this shit to troll MMA fans.
And LOTS of people, maybe even most, aren't really paying close attention, if at all. They are on their phones or something and don't notice damaging strikes unless there is blood or knockdowns.
That doesn't stop them from immediately making a thread shitting on the fighters immediately afterwards.
It wasn't a bad fight at all. But it left a sour taste, watching our boy Edson get beat like that. ='(
He was very slow last night, being beaten to the punch in every single exchange. Also his timing and distance were way off, but that seemed more consequence to the damage he took in the first, like he was rocked for the whole remaining of the fight. Even then he was still dangerous with his kicks.
I really though he was going to remove and put down the gloves in the end. 30 fights in the UFC is a lot, more so when most of them were wars.
If you found that fight boring, it says a lot more about you than it does about the fight.It's cute that people have to force themselves to pretend to enjoy boring fights like that.

Well no one died in it.If you found that boring, I've gotta question why you watch MMA in the first place.
MMA has to have the most clueless fanbase of any sport. I suppose that has something to do with it's relative "newness" compared to other sports, but still.
He doesn't have to KO Barboza but he took unnecessary damage against Barboza who was just there. I preferred if he played it more technical and safer. The blueprint to fighting Barboza is out there. Barboza hasn't changed since he came into the UFC. He still has the same technical flaws that can be exploited. Murphy's performance could be also his first time fighting a main event 5 rounder.So you are shitting on Murphy because Barboza wasn't KOd? He was throwing heavy shots, sometimes fighters can fucking take it.
LOL they never will. Did not see this card. Any good? I am getting old. I honestly did not know who any of the fighters on the card were other than Barboza and it sounds like he got an ass-whoopin'.The "BMF" Barboza. Never change Sherbros.
Yup. 3rd highest strike differential in UFC history. Murphy was extremely active in that fight landing tons of shots.If you found that fight boring, it says a lot more about you than it does about the fight.
