Barberena relies so much on his ability to absorb strikes. It looked like it was finally one big knee* too many. Great fight.

Amazing. Props to BanBam. I was literally just wondering how the **** the judges were gonna score that. 

If nothing else Barberana just won a ton of new fans, including myself.

FOTY so far, Luque is a ******* unstoppable machine. Barberena has a HUGE chin, but that knee finally cracked it.
