I can't believe more people on here aren't talking about this one! Did you guys see Barboza's fight against Lullo? He might have the best striking in the division, and Njokuani no doubt has great striking as well. This will be an awesome war until someone gets ko'd. Get pumped guys.






vs. 




How are you guys not talking about this fight more! I'm giddy with excitement.

That kick on Horodecki was so vicious.  It didnt help that Horodecki looks like a little kid either, lol.  It's weird how similar it is to the Yves Edwards / Josh Thomson fight in the UFC from back in the day.

Aside from all the running away / face kicking, yes, this fight will be bananas.  This fight is the Yin to Nik Lentz vs. Waylon Lowe's Yang, lol.

Barboza's Muay Thai was so fun to watch in his debut...however it honestly got to the point I felt bad for Mike Lullo and just wanted the ref to end the fight.

@DaiKaiju, I seriously think they made that Nik Lentz vs Waylon Lowe fight just so one of them will lose, so they have an excuse to bury them on the prelims, lol. This fight though, will be fireworks, I think one of them (Njokuani) will get ko'd for sure. Barboza's leg kicks may be too much for Njo to handle.

I'm disappointed that this fight isn't being aired.  Barboza's debut was fun to watch and he had some crazy leg kicks.  I'm hoping we get to see this fight at some point during the night.  I'm predicting a first round knockout.

It'll be the kind of fight that takes years off of a fighter's chin. Since Njoukuani already had his checked before, he'll be the one that won't recover.

I think Barboza is just a better version of Njokuani. We'll see if he can prove me wrong, though...

Anthony will come out swinging, but will slip up somewhere and Barboza will capitalize.
