Pretty much agree with all the above, Till was a massive dissapointment, claims hes been to all these camps and how hes improved and sempt way to scared of getting hit. He was so gassed that second round i feel if he just went for the kill he could have had him out. Maybe his hearts not in it anymore im not sure.

Judges were shocking for most of the night too.
 
Only watched Paddy's fight as had other things to do but couldn't see how he won it although I am pleased that he did. Was 20 - 18 going into that final round and that one could be given either way so 30 - 27 or 29 - 28 Gordon. Anyway, see what they give him next but he needs to avoid getting hit so much as he's meeting better opponents.

Till is basically finished at this point. He couldn’t go after a guy who was completely gassed and standing literally right in front of him. He needs to go back down to 170

Yeah Till needs to go down a weight class to Welterweight because is too small for Middleweight, but even so he has clearly lost much of the confidence and killer instinct that he had when he was at his peak and will likely never be the same again. Plus with his constant injuries to ACL etc his body is sending him a clear message.

At this point I would love for Paddy to get brutally KO'd to bring him back down to earth with a bang.

Although Paddy gets hit a fair bit, he's actually very good at rolling with it and taking most of the sting out of the punches....plus he has a very solid chin. It would definitely be better to not get smacked at all, but I don't think it's as much of a liability as some people make out.

I don't mind his cockiness at all, his fights are always exciting and good to watch.

Of course not defending your chin is a liability and he will likely get murdered by Top 15 lightweights. He is a 'decent' fighter but we will see him exposed for his weaknesses as he faces increasingly stiff competition.
 
Feed Paddy to Charles Oliveria, that would make for a tasty knockout - Charlie Olives is so crisp with his Muay Thai that he'd eat Paddy alive. Even Dan Hooker would absolutely marmalize the baddy.

Hah, Dana will never allow that unless Olivera suddenly does a Tony Ferguson and fades fast. Having said that, maybe Tony Ferguson will be a fight that is organized for Paddy as he has declined to the point where Paddy has a real chance.
 
DrewDo is the guy to fight Paddy, it would be an awesome matchup that I hope would teach Paddy some real humble pie! The Tsuryikan fight was also good and I think he could really give Islam a run for his money in a year or two.

As expected, Strickland vs Cannonier was by far the most boring match of the event, I hate watching those guys and I think that they both suck at entertaining inside the Octagon. Middleweight has been the least fun division for me recently with all these snoozers in the Top 10 and I hope Pereira can make things more exciting if he defends his belt against Izzy again.

He wins till they move him up and can’t protect him.

Dana still promoting slap fights which beggars belief to be honest. Businessman to the bone :p

Mad isnt it? He's getting almost zero push back from the press for what he did. Barely anyone is saying a bad word about him. He has some serious power. Meanwhile USA's football manager is busy getting cancelled for kicking his lass (now wife) when he was a teenager in 1991. :rolleyes:
