    What happened? Why did Lerana not pounce in that first round?

    Because Lerena wasn't supposed to hurt him, but did, got scared because he was about to lose his payday and backed off

    Well the 1st round looked more like Dubois was just trying to recuperate, looking for reasons to take a knee. It wasn’t some great offensive display by Lerena. Even with that, it was pretty strange that he didn’t capitalize in the next round. Then he gets dropped and we get an early stoppage after the bell. Fix was in imo.

    Any top HW fighter would chew dubois alive and spit him.

    Maybe, but they'd have to get past that jab and power. Dubois is quite cute with it.

    dubois has ZERO chances vs any top HW fighter. None.

    The Joyce fight was quite close for a while, until it wasn't. Joyce is pretty much an immovable object as we all know.

    Dubois vs. Anderson would be a nice powerhouse fight between two young fighters...

    It looked very suspicious especially with the refs actions.

    Lerena is going to get another payday in his next fight, guaranteed.

    Another hype job talked up by the usual suspects. Hrgovic or Jalolov shuts his brain off for a 50 count
