Pros react to Tony Ferguson’s victory over Rafael dos Anjos

Tony Ferguson scored the biggest win of his mixed martial arts career last night in Mexico City, as he defeated former division title holder Rafael dos Anjos in the main event of UFC Fight Night 98 via unanimous decision.

The five-round main event tilt was nothing short of thrilling, but in the end it was clear that Ferguson had done enough to outpoint “RDA” on the judges scorecards.

Here is how the pros reacted to last night’s spectacular main event war:
