^^^^^
Barcelos is a black belt in BJJ that was on the Brazilian National Wrestling team. I don't think hes a striker.

Completely one-sided 1st round. Barcelos completely owning Musgrave everywhere, almost finishes him w/ punches with seconds to go left.

10-9 Barcelos

but as close to a 10-8 as you can get without it being a 10-8

More of the same.

This time Musgrave landing a little more, and Barcelos looking to clinch against the cage. A little more competitive, but not by much.

2nd - 10-9 Barcelos

20-18 Barcelos total

Around a min in Barcelos lands a half-asses takedown and instantly takes Musgraves back.
Locks in a tight RNC for about 5-10 seconds, but Musrave turns into it and escapes it.

Barcelos landing crisp, powerful combos while Musgrave shows no head movement or footwork.

Barcelos mixing it up very well with good 2 punch combos and takedowns with lighthearted submission attempts.

Musgrave not at all able to get anything off. Both guys starting to look a little tired. Barcelos bleeding from the nose.

Another solid round for Raoni.

3rd round - 10-9 Barcelos

30-27 Barcelos thus far

Musgrave being a little more active in the stand-up. Landing okay hooks.

Although in the 4th, both guys don't look as tired as one would think.

Musgrave misses a left jab, Barcelos taunts him with a well executed Ali shuffle,
instantly shoots a TD, gets Musgraves back again, VERY TIGHT RNC but Ricky rolls out.

Raoni staying in half-guard landing baby hammerfists without posturing up.

4th round - 10-9 Barcelos

40-36 Barcelos going into the 5th...

Musgrave looks to land a decent flying knee but Barcelos grabs him mid-air, does a 180 spin and takes him down against the cage.

Ron Kruk interviewing Machida in the corner said that Barcelos said he hurt his right hand.
You wouldn't know though cause Barcelos using his right hand as much as any other fighter.

Musgrave trying to but scoot against the cage but Barcelos doing good job of trapping one leg.

Ricky eventually gets up and the two break apart to meet in the center. Both guys not throwing much.
Lots and lots of circling by Barcelos.

Every time Ricky throws anything Barcelos is landing 2-3 punches at a time. Just basically outclassing Ricky at everything this fight, and that's how it'll end.

5th - 10-9 Barcelos

50-45 Barcelos total

To the surprise of nobody, all 3 judges have it 50-45 for Barcelos.

Hope to see him in a better promotion now, wherever it may be, he was completely dominant everywhere, needs a higher tier competition now.

Damn, I would have finished first if Ware doesn't get submitted with 2 seconds left.

Another good RFA card. I always enjoy them.
