weird fight. Ferreira has so much potential, but is always such a letdown.

I honestly don't know who won. I'm fine with 29-28 anyone.

LULZ

The Brazilian commentators were lamenting the result and talking about what Mutante could have done differently, and then the decision was read.

No way to give him the third. The first, maybe. I think the judges got it right this time.

He'll probably be champ one day, that's if USADA doesn't catch him first.
