Either way, this was a fight he needed to make a statement for the title shot. The bottom line is he didnt.
Well he did win.

I dont think he is ready for the big guns either, but he may well get there,he isnt opposed to change by the look of him,so theres hope if he can keep his head and game plan in future.

At the moment I think Penn will sign his name on the canvas with maynards blood .


Did you see it as Nate won?

Some did for sure,

I could'nt see it myself , not on split round scoring.

If it was one big round of fifteen minutes without the three seperate scores for each round, maybe it would be Nates on damage and more hits in the final round.
