    Great way to retire for Breidies. Pay that man his money.

    It looked like he ran into a wall, literally.

    Opetaia isn’t as good as it was made out on this forum.

    Cruiserweight Haye kills him in 4

    Very bad finishing from Opetaia. That's not how champion should behave

    Based on actual recorded history.

    They were the top 3.

    AJ didn't get the fights against the other two.

    There's literally nothing to debate here. My point is the best HW wasn't able to face his peers, and he wasnt.

    Briedis has an incredible chin; prime Briedis would have washed Opetaia

    12 9-10 Briedis
    Final 117-111 Briedis (finally something goes to the cards)

    If Briedis didn't have the lay off you would have to think he would have made a fight of this sooner. Not that impressed with Opetaia here

    If this is what he can do with a passed-prime unmotivated breidis, I dont think that opetaia would have won to a prime breidis, tbh.
