PBP UFC Fight Night 241 - Barboza vs. Murphy Official PBP Discussion: Sat 5/18 at 4pm ET

['Suga Daddy']

Murphy has no killer instinct, doesn’t bode well against the super legit guys in this division

 

[JoeRowe]

Agreed. Not sure how there’s folks who thought Edson won the first round.

He scored the only knock down of a competitive round

 

[BEATDOWNS]

sucks when these veterans lose to newbies. I literally couldn't even remember hearing about Lerone Murphy before this and i ain't no filthy casual. fight me

 

[pv3Hpv3p]

Edson is too tough for his own good, his balls are surpassing his reaction time at this point... still always dangerous though.

tough to watch him take these beatings as a gatekeeper, seems like a nice fellow but that's the fight game I guess

 

[STAY GOLD]

Edson has good head movement but Murphy is finding the target almost every time he throws. Very accurate in this fight.

I have to disagree with the good head movement.

 

[STAY GOLD]

He scored the only knock down of a competitive round

That wasn’t a knock down and he was getting his face punched the entire round.

 

[Substance Abuse]

Murphy/Emmett next please. If not, Diego Lopes.

 

[GroundNPouter]

What is it with people trying to give barboza a round?

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

Murphy has no killer instinct, doesn’t bode well against the super legit guys in this division

oh he's got all the instinct. the problem is that he hits as hard as ariana grande.

As Jon Anik says
If ya don’t know
Now ya know

 

[IneedSometop]

Hopefully Murphy can stay healthy after this fight. That’s been the biggest problem in his career is inactivity. He could be a player in the division

 

[xhaydenx]

Lerone couldn't finished this rounds ago, but too much of a point fighter lol.

No need to waste energy going for a td when you have someone rocked as fuck and caught up against the cage.

Point fighter bum. Looking forward to someone KOing him.

 

[FrappeDuRocma]

Edson needs to stop... Shades of Justin vs Ferguson.

 

[El Fernas]

Is it weird that Edson has not much hand speed at this point, but his kicks still swing fast? every time he low-kicks him he switches stances, those are hurting him...Barboza throws one and goes back to try to box.

 

[GroundNPouter]

I dont remember a single combo from murphy.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

As Jon Anik says
If ya don’t know
Now ya know

I just saw Daner say that at the end of the 304 announcement.

that needs to be on a Hotdog brander. imho

 

[pv3Hpv3p]

Edson didn’t win the first round. He was getting his face punched and only really landed the big up kick to end the round.

I thought it was close to even until the upkick, making it arguable. Hence the question mark

I don't think much matters in the grand scheme of things

 

[ExitLUPin]

Damn that body kick hurt Murphy. Wouldve been interesting if he couldn't get the TD.

 

[Dorkman]

30th ufc fight. Absorbed more strikes than you ever had. Tons of mileage previous to this...Really hope Edson considers hanging them up soon. Not really enjoyable watching him get the piss beat out of him again.

 

[Marko Atanasovik]

Unexpected perfomance. Similar domination like Topuria against Emmett.
