@KD  It only looks that way, because of the fact that Roop's cut so much weight.  Roop looks as thin as a twig.  Although, I will say that Mizugaki does look like he added some muscle to his frame.

Roop certainly made Mizugaki earn it, but the decision should be pretty clear for Mizugaki.

Roop needs to go up in weight.  It makes no sense for someone who is 6'1" to cut that much for that kind of reach advantage he wants. He is not able to fight effectively.   He needs to at least go back up to featherweight, if not go up to lightweight.

Yeah. Both guys get six-figure contracts. Still feel robbed we got no round four.
