...hopefully not


Edit:
...no words of a change of style

...hopefully not

I don't think he can he loves the pressure and volume too much

The best way to maintain brain health is to avoid fighting Barboza.

Wouldn't the best thing for your brain be to retire and get a 9 - 5 job? Especially if you have worries about it.

Nick Denis did it. Got out and retired after a slugfest in his last fight. Was worried about brain damage and retired, and got himself a very good job after.

Thanks cool interview.

He came down with the Micheal Chandler during the Barboza fight


No big deal

I know people say you have to be all in as a fighter, but these guys really do need backup plans if everything doesn’t go their way in fighting.

Better now than never....but he had so many fights already I think he won't mentally get out of the habit of having a "good fight" and putting himself in positions where he eats a lot of head punches. Just on his record the wars with Kattar, Emmet, Edson back to back seems bad.
