    So sick to see Justin’s career growth and development. Especially, if you go back and listen to the lead up, to the James Vick fight. Vick’s trash talk, despite not backing it up, was pretty spot on, as it related to Justin’s‘s approach to fights, at that time. I think Trevor and his team, deserve a ton of credit, along with Justin’s maturity.

Gaethje vs Ferguson is still my favorite fight, but now he is the BMF and so happy for him and his Family.

      @@johnboggs1080 I think all fight fans are at list a tiny bit sick to a certain degrees, but I understand where you're coming from. I loved that fight because it's when Justin really started to make adjustments where the mind caught up with the body and he listed to what Trevor was saying. Remember there was still danger posed with the almost knockdown at the end of round one. Also, going into the fight Tony was revered as Khabib's equal by many and the next best fighter to Khabib whereas Justin was still a couple notches below. He went into that fight ready to face that challenge. What transpired was exactly what you described but we didn't know that going in. Tony has fallen off a cliff since which has been a sad watch and I take no joy in that at all. Tony has meant so much to the game. My favorite fighter went into that fight to beat a guy on a 12 fight win streak with unpredictable weapons. He finally fought composed post the 2nd round and to me it was a beautiful dance from the Highlight's side.

    I really would have liked to see Dustin win again, but how could anyone be disappointed to see the w and the bmf belt go to gaethje… another world class fighter…
    It would be great to see how he holds up against Islam in the future…

    Hes the only person that should be the rightful owner of that belt especially since he has never had the 55belt.

    Oh great, another charisma-lacking Brett Okamoto interview.

    Justin is a incredible fighter. He ain't no sissy who takes steroids too. Definitely a favorite.

    There's been a lot of foreigners who have had anomalous performances in Abu Dhabi who report not feeling like themselves. Reflect back on the time there as a bit of an oddity, hazy.

    I hate the Connor talk. Connor needs to fight chandler. A win over chandler puts an inactive Connor in talks with fighting someone in the top 5. I hope Dustin says no unless they offer him 20 mil.
