Man, Ferreira got exposed BAD! zero ground game, zero tdd. It never fails, I tell my semi-hardcore friends to wach out for someone and they put as abysmal performance...

Yup. That was embarrassing. I was on the train too. At least it happened now so it’s something he can address.

You can't use a Sherdog PBP thread to gauge viewership.

I would say its more or less an indication of what hardcore fans are interested in but not viewership in general.
