The director ****** up there. But Brown got the KO. Diego relied on his toughness for so long and now his chin is gone. He just can't take hits and his style relied on that ability quite heavily.

@Bigj383 Dude, did you see what Sanchez was hit by?

That **** would floor prime Junior dos Santos.

Matt brown ended his career just like he fought it... pure violence! Man I’m gonna miss him fighting, so happy he got the perfect ending though, if anyone deserves it, he does.

He's three and three from his last six, just got KTFO by brown and before that got KTFO by Iaquinta.

It's time to check out.

Matt brown has had an awful run but it’s mostly been against elite people. I think he has plenty to offer still and has a few fights left it’s diego who should be retiring. Getting slept at lightweight doesn’t mean you should go to welterweight to take on a top 25 welterweight. It’s amazing he hasn’t been stopped more times

Diego has gone from never being KOed in his career to getting KOed 3 times in his last 4 fights all in rd 1. That's a problem with his ability to take a punch.
