Shit, gassed was completely insufficient to describe Onama's physical and mental state. He was Phil Baroni Gassed.

That was like a 7.5 on the Baroni scale. He could at least lift his arms up above his waist.

Cruz can't take a punch from the top of the division guys and while he's still good defensively, he's obviously lost a lot of agility and doesn't even use the same sort of footwork for the most part. Probably best he retires. Great fighter though. He pretty much has to fight perfectly for 25 minutes to win fights now. Doesn't have power and can't make a mistake or it's nighty night.

Cruz was doing good work, but that felt like a matter of when and not if based on the points your laid out. Once you lose an ounce of speed and you can't be Nicolino Locche out there, you are gonna live and die by your chin. That's tough for any older fighter who has been around for a long time.

In the immortal words of Mobb Deep, Chito Vera rocked Dom so hard that Dom stabbed his own brain with his nose bone.
