Pellegrino was on a good run, isn't this a step down for Tibau?Not that Bart is some slouch but he was fighting COdy MacKenzie

Much better matchup. Tibau has this by being bigger and stronger. UD by Tibau.

Yikes, that's a bit of an upgrade for Bart. He's a tough dude so I'm sure he'd fight anybody, but he went from having a very winnable fight with Cody to one where he'll be a pretty big underdog against Tibau.

i see bart being put on his back alot... tough fight for him. i think he wouldve avoided codies guillotine and maybe TKOd him. but tibau by UD or TKO late
