      Mosquera's fight with Nanthachai was a war as well.

      Iran Barkley also had good fights with Robbie Simms and Eddie Hall, he was just all action all of the time.

      Antwaun Echols had a good fight with Charles Brewer, got off of the deck three times to stop Brewer in the next round.

        Barkley was just an entertaining fighter, I don't think he was ever in a boring fight.

        Yeah, Echols-Brewer was a dandy, heck of a comeback from Echols but considering how hurt he was when he was down 3 times, it can be argued that the stoppage was a little quick, Brewer started protesting right away.

        Haven't seen the Mosquera-Nanthachai fight, I'll be sure to look out for it.

          I think its about time you changed your screen name from Silencers to "The Source". Good God almighty!
