Fighters have decided to come forward with their thoughts concerning the highly anticipated UFC main event that took place over the weekend. Now fight fans can see what many of the UFC’s competitors had to say.
The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) hosted a series of exciting fights over the weekend. The world’s most famous mixed martial arts promotion made a trip to the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey to host UFC Fight Night 128.
Headlining the night’s event, former UFC interim lightweight contender Kevin Lee was looking to bounce back from a tough loss to Tony Ferguson as he faced off against talented division contender Edson Barboza.
Lee put on a dominant performance over his opponent, ultimately earning a TKO victory over Barboza by way of doctor stoppage. See what many fighters had to say about the octagon performance within the social media posts below:

Docs are waving it off. Barboza absorbed a hellacious beating from Lee and his eye was busted open and bleeding bad. Good stoppage. #UFCAC pic.twitter.com/Fd5lPEpUYw
