Epic Barboza

[DaysOfThunder]

That's a warrior!

 

[El Fernas]

At the end of the 1st i thought, man Barboza just cant catch a break, nice to see him coming from behind and getting a HARD fought win, FOTN for sure.

 

[DaysOfThunder]

Barboza took so much punishment in the first round, it's a miracle he survived.
To come back from that and go four more rounds, winning the fight, is almost super human. That is championship caliber.

 

[IneedSometop]

Thought he was in for a kevin lee style ass kicking after the first but he turned it up and turned it around. He's a beast and JBG legend

 

[frederick]

Being a Barboza fan is tough. Good job tonight, though.

 

[Lawrence]

Stole fight of the night from Elkins !

That body work!

Edson proves the tank at 145

One of the best comebacks this year!

 

[ignorant MMA fan]

Easily the best cardio I've seen from Edson. Probably what allowed him to win the fight.

 

[Huligani]

His cardio is underrated. He only gasses when pressured and grappled heavily, most notably against Ferguson. Funny post fight interview too.

 

[Jinx_AA]

Super was too out low put once again …. Blew his shot in the spotlight of a main event - he’ll never get a high main card spot ever again

happy as hell for Edson !

 

[Roop Holstry]

His toughness has always been underrated. He was out on his feet for like 2 minutes and came back to win.

Legendary performance

 

[pv3Hpv3p]

That was a hell of a fight.

I "liked" the OP then "unliked" it just to "like" it again

 

[RonDante]

More and more I’m starting to think that the lightweight era with RDA, Khabib, Mcgregor, poirier, Alvarez, gaethje, tony, barboza, is the best era of fighters we will ever see

 

[StonedLemur]

Barbosa showed some serious sack tonight.

WAR BARBOSA

 

[Poirierfan]

Barboza is the man and always has been the man, much respect. Not to mention, but LSU is hitting on all cylinders tonight too, it's a good day today.

 

[Hdfi]

great comeback, I thought he was done after 3 minutes. and props to Herb Dean for not stopping the fight.

 

[VinceArch]

Always comes to fight win or lose.

 

[Staph infection]

He showed major heart and toughness tonight. I thought we were going to see the usual Barboza give up once he was pressured and hurt but damn he took a ton of damage and kept going.

 

[Momentosis]

More and more I’m starting to think that the lightweight era with RDA, Khabib, Mcgregor, poirier, Alvarez, gaethje, tony, barboza, is the best era of fighters we will ever see

Definitely a banger of an era on its last legs. The boys still putting it on the new guard for the most part.

 

[Mickey Mick]

Bring on Edson vs Holloway, Ige, Touporia, Ortega or Yair! Or even Paddy if he beats Tony!

keep Edson away from Bryce Mitchell! I can’t stand that kid
