@@cobracommander9138 she dominated the 1st round 🤔… then gassed and got finished. It’s not an off night, maybe not the best version of Amanda but she lost fair and square but I highly doubt she will lose again

[@cobracommander9138]

@@One_trax Amanda gassed when she couldn't get Pena out of there and Pena kept coming at her. Amanda was mentally and physically deflated when she couldn't just KO Pena like she did all of her other opponents. It happened to Conor also and everyone blamed it on him being "gassed" . I have seen this phenomena in boxing also.

[@Comewithmeifuwant2live]

From what I saw very early on in the second round Nunes got a couple of smacks on the nose, she didn't like the fact that she wasn't coming out best in the exchanges, so she tried to land haymakers instead and it gassed her out.

[@my11badkids78]

Moreno and Davidson may be 1-1-1 but Morenos win was a finish versus Davidsons decision win. As close to even as it may seem it still feels like Moreno has the edge overall. That and there's a substantial part of the MMA community that thinks he was robbed in that decision. Seems like there was quite a bit of hesitancy on Figgys end when it came to a 4th tie, tie breaking fight. Watching Moreno vs Kara France 1 over again, Brandon read him for the first round and then dismantled him over the next 2. The striking numbers were close but Morenos all had way more behind them when they connected. Figgy won't be able to hide from the 4th fight for long.

Moreno is lucky that Deveison had a point taken away in the first fight. Without it there wouldn’t possibly be a fourth fight.
