Anybody Watch the Kevin Lee vs Tony Ferguson Fight?

Kevin Lee did 0 damage to Tony despite having him mounted.

Tony literally defended all of the GNP and was able to regain his guard.

Watch it again, it's actually fucking impressive how Tony took 0 damage despite having a fresh beast of an athlete like Kevin on top of him in full mount for over a minute.
I'm a Tony fan but dude... If that's not damage then what is it?

The bias on BOTH sides is fucking painful to see

Tony outstruck the living hell out of Lee and stuffed multiple takedowns easily.
It's when Lee got his back to the cage the takedowns happened but Kevin Lee is STRONG as fuck and literally could just pick him up at anytime.
Ferg showed good footwork against one of the highest level pressure strikers (at the time) in RDA
Ferg got mounted and hit with big shots from mount, nobody willingly goes to mount, he was in real danger. Maybe he was confident on his back in guard but he wasn't inviting the mount, that's absurd.
Ferg also forced Lee to keep fighting at a high pace whether on the ground or standing, that's why Lee gassed. If Lee tried to rest he got hit.

Khabib couldn't get Barboza or Poirier down in open matt (it was against the fence)
Khabib has incredible footwork to pressure and has underrated defence, his offence is a bit sloppy though and can leave him open
Khabib also gasses people out by constantly applying pressure both standing (Footworks/Feints) and Grappling (GnP/Pressure)
Khabib did not LET Poirier grab his neck, whoever thinks that is brain dead. He got over confident and almost got tapped out he even almost resorting to giving up position.

Both guys have major keys to win and to claim either guy sucks is stupid and a void argument.
 
God MMA fans are stupid...

On the topic of Kevin Lee - how about Lee beating the fuck out of Barboza even worse than Khabib did?
At least Khabib didn't get hit by basically every shot that Barboza threw at him though... Lee's defense is still porous.
