Brunson looked good, in great shape. Smart first round, took over in 2nd and then got the finish. What a performance. @DerekBrunson should be proud. Head up @edmenshahbazyan what a great night of fights.

Brunson taking his time, which is great to see as his all out first round style would cost him the fight sometimes, but it’s also what brought him a lot of his success. Gotta find that happy medium.

Huge second round for Brunson. Mixing things up nicely. Almost ko’d shabazyan at the end.

Thank you Herb! That man is young and has a promising career ahead of him. Thank you for stopping any further damage. #DrunkTweets #ItsMyBirthdayBish #UFCVegas5

Early but sound call from herb dean. Brunson was just gonna punish him big time. No need for a young prospect to take unnecessary damage.

That was a educated stoppage by Herb. Edmond was likely done after round 2. Nothing changed early in 3 and he waved it at the first sign of trouble. Live to fight another day. #UFCVegas5

Herb Dean is the best in the business

That was a good stoppage by herb imo, brunsen got right back on top to a dominant position, on top of an exhausted shabazyan. That had the potential to take years off of the kids career
