    He's out on his feet, why would you take him down...

    Because there's always a chance you can get caught by a hurt fighter throwing a hail mary shot on the feet, on the ground if you're in top position the risk of getting knocked out or even hit is minimal. If someone is fooked and I know I'm better than them on the ground, they're going down and I'm going to grind them into the mat.

    True. But he was one or two punches away from falling. KO finishes are useful for guys on the Prelims who want a shot at bonuses.

    Yeah but he was eating shots so probably better to take that away from teymur

    Edit : as above

    The two judges who scored it 29-28 need a slap.

    Jaysus the leg dexterity of this fella fighting Ward looks a bit freakish.
    I'm calling it, axe kick KO, first round.

    I said it a month ago, Bofando is no joke has serious dexterity in his hips and KO power in his hands.

    I can't see this fight getting out of the 1st round one way or another. Kill or be killed in 2 minutes :pac:

    Charlie and Artem could lose 5 in a row and Conor will keep them on the roster.

    Even with Conor being his owner, I think they cut him if he loses.

    What a crap way to go out.

    Don't think he'll get another UFC shot now will he?

    He looked to be out before his head hit the canvas never seen anything like it.

    All joking aside, when he fought last I thought he was too top heavy for this level. His legs are constantly fighting against his top weight, and he pushes his chest and ahead forward, so even in the clinch there he was over extending when he tried to sweep, I'm sure that lad is strong but he had to do very little to send Ward headwards to the canvas.
