I\u2019m just not sure. I feel like I kind of got robbed. I felt like it was a close fight. I\u2019m not saying Barboza didn\u2019t do his thing, but even the things he did, they looked bigger than they were.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNormally, the way it works is you crack a guy, he stumbles, and you chase his ass and finish him up. Barboza is a great finisher, and all of a sudden he\u2019s not trying to finish me? I felt like I was the aggressor the whole time. I controlled the center of the cage. He had a couple of leg kicks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought it was based on cage control, effective striking, aggression and all these different things that we base a fight on.  I don\u2019t know. I thought I was doing fine. I wanted to stand up with a muay Thai striker. I wanted to prove that I can take his best, no problem. He was the one having trouble with my style.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI felt like the first round was pretty close.  I think the stats showed he had a few more strikes, but I had the takedown, so with the takedown, I thought I took the first round. And I thought I took the third round, so I get one and three, and I give him two. I don\u2019t understand how he wins when he\u2019s not the aggressive one.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Do you agree with Green&#8217;s breakdown of the bout?
