Sad thought I just had

Edson and Morales are close friends and training partners. While Edson has rebounded from a bad losing streak, Morales’s chin is permanently ****** and he will most likely be released after another defeat.

I'm not a doctor or anything, but in my opinion that's a bad KO for Burgos. He should really take a long break from this sport like Ortega (even though it wasn't voluntary) and just try to recover as much as he possibly can. Having such a bad "delay" KO just shows how much damage his brain has already taken, and he does huge weight cuts already which just makes this problem worse.

But then again, we also have to ask why is this 30 year old with nearly 20 pro fights deep fighting with such a defensively irresponsible style where he welcomes damage even with power punchers? Would a break do anything meaningful if he's just going to continue fighting in a way where the damage continues to pile on more and more each time he not only goes to the cage, but to any sparring sessions, weight cuts,etc

Yeah that KO was... abnormal. It was sort of a body punch type KO. Where it doesnt hurt until you take a step or try to throw a punch and your legs just give out... only his legs were his brain in this situation?...

I switched to Chookagian literally yesterday, not super confident in this pick. Araujo has what it takes.

It was kind of like how Gaethje KO’d Ferguson. Sometimes the body can’t take it even if the mind wants to.

I’m legitimately concerned for Burgos’s health. His fighting style might have finally done him in wrong in the worst way possible. I’ve seen weird knockouts, but I’ve never seen a fighter pull their Ethernet cable and rage quit mid fight

Whatever happens in this fight....if you believe that the judges hear Kaitlyn's sounds when striking and judge for her because of it you're beyond ********.
