no one escapes barbosa unhurt this dude is the boogyman of ufc history easy

[@Chadking-fc4vy]

A bunch of guys have 😭 Bryce and khabib are a few 😂

[@ChildishGambeaner]

"a bunch of guys have😂😂😂😂😂😂" names two...

[@Sacciuiguai]

@@Chadking-fc4vy Well because they are wrestlers and they took him down but they didn't dare to strike with him, I know it's mma but it was to answer to your take

[@vladavic123]

Except Khabib 😂

[@Chadking-fc4vy]

@@Sacciuiguai um okay don't care ppl have escaped Barbosa unhurt.. he should've clarified that he meant striking only 😂

[@therealbergexperience5640]

For how dominant he was in that fight his face is busted up 🤕

[@kingt0295]

That’s what jabs do

[@landon776]

Dudes a killer.

[@Fony_turgeson]

Killer? How

[@IsenathiDyantyi]

next!! Emmet 🇺🇲 vs 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Murphy

[@bertof2954]

The amount of respect it sounds like he has for edson is beautiful

[@rollin60z]

Lerone Rocky Murphyyy

[@alannewman3667]

Talented

[@-Denisa-]

Winner of Ige vs Brito next

[@IsenathiDyantyi]

no Josh Emmet next!!

[@msizinkosi3481]

I wish this guy all the best, he has been through hell in his life but still swinging

[@JesseComments]

I like his lil French mustacho lol

[@langtryvlogme]

We prefer the term mustaccio 👄

[@shatchett0]

I didn’t see the fight but I see it on his face. Damn.

[@jesseramirez1342]

Yo wtf was up with the Nathaniel Wood question. Bro, was that fucking Jose Young’s? Shout out to alerón edit standing his ground and trying to be polite. Lerone should be fighting people like Katar, Allen, Emmet next. Shit Yair is top 5 still but he’s coming off a loss. Awesome timing to put Lerone vs Yair at the sphere.

[@PyroCham]

Nah, that wasn't Jose. Don't know the name of the guy asking, but I recognize his voice. He has been asking a couple of dumb questions lately

[@Hanashi_mma]

We lost but we def lumped him up . Great win. Well deserved.

[@CryptoLando]

featherweights put on the best wars.

[@abimaelsilva4607]

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@LuckyfoeShamo77]

Man barboza looked horrible

[@acedbridge5651]

Nah he looked normal he just simply got out worked and the cardio and pressure was a lot better on Murphys side and that was the difference nothing to do with Edson looking bad

[@mysterykingCCC]

@@acedbridge5651watching it now he’s all in his face straight composed pressure

[@Bairom06]

​@@mysterykingCCCman that was heartbreaking low-key 😢

[@GabrielRodriguez-pm3pg]

​@@acedbridge5651Yes it 100% something to do with babosa looking bad, Murphy barely got past way less comp than Barbosa ,Edson never got kicks going or hooks just a jab with someone who only jabs😭😭edson looked horrible and saying he looked like himself is foolish you must have didn't watch the fight that was a man who was a shell of himself

[@squeezewilliams3003]

He looked too old. He looked too old against Yusuff too but his toughness got him through He should be done but when you say it like that it sounds disrespectful. Time has caught up to him but he's a legend

[@AhPhoey]

Lerone looks like a bear mauled him.

[@user-do3cg8ns4m]

You’re a sheltered social recluse. You ever seen a bear, boy? A bear would tear his skin from his body and tear him to bits chunk by chunk. Unless you mean a declawed, brain damaged, basically dead bear who had 1/5000th of its strength and only got one swipe off before it fatigued and fell over dead before the swipe was done. Go touch grass

[@Fony_turgeson]

Lopes destroys murphy

[@Fony_turgeson]

This boy got busted up. No one making to top 10. He's not ready

[@MrRobjs83]

Give him either Yair or maybe Diego Lopes next

[@IsenathiDyantyi]

no next!!! Ortega 🇺🇲 vs 🇧🇷 Lopes Yair 🇲🇽 vs 🇯🇲 Sterling Emmet 🇺🇲 vs 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Murphy

[@Fony_turgeson]

Lopes destroys him

[@MrRobjs83]

​@@IsenathiDyantyithat's 1 line-up, Yair gets subbed by Aljo though most likely. I'm thinking Ortega vs Emmett, Aljo vs Evloev. Lopes vs either Murphy or Yair

[@MrRobjs83]

​@@Fony_turgeson good lol jk idk about that, dudes undefeated. But yeah Lopes could fraud check him like he did Sadiq Yusuf and almost did to Evloev. Would be a good one though, could go either way.

[@javiervenegas6714]

I don’t see him doing that well against the top 10. Give ige next Dan lights him up in the feet unless Murphy decide to wrestle him.

[@2muchbhp]

I don’t think he could hang with ige in the wrestling department

[@Chadking-fc4vy]

​​@@2muchbhpwtf sport do u watch? Ige doesn't wrestle...he has good tdd that's about it

[@2muchbhp]

@@Chadking-fc4vy so you think years of training around the khabib camps means you didn’t learn how to wrestle ? He’s a part of Ali abdelaziz crew and I wonder what they specialise in so wtf sport are you watching

[@javiervenegas6714]

Dan can wrestle but it’s not his strong suit. Bryce was able to win with the takedowns and hold him down for the most part, but I don’t think Murphys wrestling is as good as Bryce’s

[@Chadking-fc4vy]

@@2muchbhp dumbass he already knew how 2 wrestle 😂 obviously he got better at wrestling... But you guys acting like he didn't know how 2 wrestle and khabib taught him. . It's delusional actually crazy

[@Makula-px8fr]

Give him Diego Lopez
