Phil Hawes should retire or at least contemplate it, being flatline KO 4 times in the last 2-3 years can’t be good for your brain. He can’t kept getting flatline KO’d

But I think Phil Hawes could possible get away with his chin if he wasn’t fighting in a way that he has to relie on his chin, him standing and banging with Bruno Ferreira and not shoting a takedown while being a D1 wrestler is silly when your chinny, he should know after getting flatline 3 time recently, not to fight like that and shot for takedowns

Hawes has been put in a disadvantageous position in the UFC. While there are plenty of other matchups that would make for entertaining fights in the UFC, maybe he needs a change of scenery. 

The four opponents that knocked him out have a combined 36 knockouts in their career. They win by knockout 75% of the time. And it also goes without saying that his last three opponents each had only 1 loss on their record. This is the risk you take when you are facing the best fighters in the world.

Great card dunno on the Phil take he got  kod by 2guys who most feel are wws.
These guys are almost all smaller less reach less supposed athleticsm.
He lacks defense and his power is way over rated like wrestling.
Not kicking guy when hes down just facts.
Hes likely cut  if not retired Pfl he could do ok

Johnny Walker was doing really well when he was being chaotic and unpredictable and just using his size and physicality in rd 1. You had the sense that either guy could be knocked out at any second then, which is not bad for a +450 dog. Then his corner calmed him down and gave him a bunch of technical advice in the round break and he came out looking like he was trying to make a clean fight and promptly got his ass beat.
