WOW! Great round start to finish. Barboza gets it but Felder Lansing heavy late. Felder cut badly on hairline by head butt leading with his head.

Round 2 Felder hurts Barboza forcing him to go for takedown which Barboza executes but Felder inflicts serious damage from his back. I have it even. Total blood and guts here as expected.

Rd 3 Felder hurting Barboza but unable to drop him. Barboza gets a last second takedown that could be the difference. Absolutely terrific fight.

I have it a draw.

That’s insane. Barboza clearly won round 1.

Poirer rocks khabib but khabib recovers and takes him down.

2-0 Khabib. Poirer worn out here.

Poirer gets a guillotine but has not the strength left to finish it. Khabib gets his back locks it up and tap out.

Khabib still Khabib.

Poirer has Khabib rocked early round 2. A great striker can take Khabib out early.

Fight of the night was Barboza / Felder.

Nice post fight speech by Khabib, addressing his issue a year ago and mma in general.

The Tony fight is the only really interesting matchup for Khabib at this point.

Makhachev is another one who i think has the skill set to challenge Khabib aswell, but that fight would never happen for obvious reasons.

Mak is formidable. Very well rounded. Excellent footwork. Long, lean and kicks as well as he strikes. His ground game is also superlative.

Yeah, he's definitely a more polished striker than Khabib, that's for sure.

Would love to see how it goes when they grapple.

I wouldn't mind it if he did. But if Tony can't stop the take down, I don't see it happening. I know Tony has a respectable wrestling background. But Khabib is a terror on the ground.
