Has anyone heard any updates about Barnett?

That was a brutal finish around the ear/temple area. Has anyone read/heard anything?
 
barnett looked like a dead man
that was scary
i hope he recovers well and comes back stronger
(and in better shape)
 
Barnett was out of it for sure but I don't think it was anything unusual
 
So disappointed in the Barnett fight.

Felt strongly that Browne was gonna receive the beating of his life, instead he gets another highly controversial, anti-climactic stoppage against a top guy.

I don't see this as anything close to as bad as Gonzaga, but it's only the first time Browne has impressed me with a full performance.

Can't stand the guy, but he has shown TDD, power and toughness.

What exactly was controversial or anti-climatic about that. Except of course if you are a Browne hater.

Controversial? How?

That was a legit finish. Period. Anyone who disagrees has no idea what they are talking about...

I saw that, my guess was he had an obligation to promote the event and someone else tweeted it for him or he tweeted it but didn't attend. If someone can confirm he was out and about in Vegas last night that'd solve things.

For the record, I think the knee did Barnett. He was kind of collapsing into Browne's crotch after that knee. I think Barnett was close to out/wanted out after that knee, and then the hellbows came.
 
It was brutal, that's for sure. He couldn't stand up straight for what seemed like more than a minute after the KO, and wasn't at the press conference either. I kind of feel 'cheated' out of an amazing fight even though it was a totally legit win. I would have loved to see it go on for at least another round, but I don't think that would have happened even if those elbows never occurred.

Yeah ok, but the question remains: why was this fight controversial or anticlimatic? Really???

Browne is a big muthafucka and moves very well. His hands are sloppy but powerful, and his chin seems strong.

Werdum's takedowns shouldn't be good enough to takes Browne down, that means we'll see Brown Pride vs Browne in the final quarter of 2014. Of course everyone picks Velasquez in that fight, but Browne could win by KO (elbows to the back of the head).

Some of those looked 12-6 and also landed behind the head, wanted browne to win but I was even worried he was gonna be DQ'd much like Jon Jones
 
How can anyone can call that a controversial ending? I wanted to see Barnett win this one, I've always enjoyed his dominating catch wrestling, but he couldn't get a submission chain going...
 
I didn't think this finish was as controversial as the GG finish. All the replays showed that they were clean elbows to Josh's temple. Brutal finish.
