Love that he went for that Imanari roll btw
I loved it. So glad the judges didn't fall for the okey doke (well 2 of them at least). Tony was trying to cause damage and finish the fight, and Castillo got his wet blanket on.
I didn't understand what Ferguson was trying to do with the marce, and hopefully Eddie asks him on a podcast or something. Instead of trying to walk into Castillo to drop him onto his side for the finish, it looked like Ferguson was just pinching the far arm between his legs and staying flat on his back. That set up from standing was awesome. Ferguson is one of my favorite fighters to watch.
It looked like every time they were on the feet Fergsuon was winning those exchanges also.
The crazy thing is that he already went for the Imanari roll in his previous fight (vs Katsunori Kikuno) but didn't get as far as with Castillo, as his opponent was already back-pedalling (Tony Ferguson vs. Katsunori Kikuno @ 3:55).
