You jumped a division. I doubt Pantoja would skip over 135 to fight the 145 champ. I think Pantoja could do well at 135, he is very well rounded and he always seems bigger than his 125lb opponents.

Mighty Mouse commented on being called out. Says his money is good, that he's happy with retirement. Also says that he's been offered $2M to fight and turned it down. He says his time as best in the world is over and he's happy with that and wants to build something that isn't contingent on fighting.

He talks about it for a few minutes here.

On purpose. I just like the matchup as a superfight.

DC is claiming that Shavkat was fighting with a torn MCL.

Would maybe explain why the fight didn't live up to the hype. Shavkat's been in some real wars before, I was hoping for a better fight. I don't think he's just another guy who wants to hold people up against the cage the whole time, but if he is, then I am down on him.

Also wish Kai Asakura had lasted longer against Pantoja. Just wanted to see a good fight. Hats off to Pantoja, the guy is an ultra-fit livewire with a strong chin.

Was a very underwhelming night overall.

We got Buckley vs. Colby coming up, maybe that'll be something. Colby laid a giant egg in his last fight against Leon, was fighting afraid. Buckley could KO Colby if he catches him with one.

I think buck is gonna kill Colby. He is super aggressive and very powerful. He isn’t gonna just play tit for tat like Leon did. I think Buckley understands how the game is played and if he finishes Colby he is gonna be at the top of this division where nobody wants to fight.

Colby had a good run but seems that age or injury or wear & tear has caught up to him and slowed him down a bit.

Colby is gonna lose for sure, his only chance is wrestling him 5 rounds to a decision and that's very unlikely to happen, Colby decided to be a one time a year fighter and wasted to much of his prime, his own fault.

He slowed him self down by barely ever taking fights when he was in his prime.
