It was a great fight, granted it was Paulie he was fighting, Danny looked ok at 147.

Numbers are still bad. Spent a insane amount on purses and got out done in TV ratings to UFC prelim fights that was a fraction of the cost.

[The Big Dunn]

That's a good peak number. Now be smart and follow this with either Porter, Broner, brook or thurman.

If not do the herrera rematch @147.
