He has been a different fighter since coming off the knee, but is he done for good?

I thought he was jobbed at Dynamite, but in that fight he was rocked badly. I question his chin at this stage but I still think he could contend for titles if he hung with the Sengoku champion as well as he did.

Done for good?

I think he still has some fight left in him, the injury really damaged him though

I wouldn't say washed up but he isn't a top 10 FW and probably won't be again.

I have him just outside the top ten still, but I could easily add him back there with two good wins over guys like Omigawa, Takaya, Kanehara in a rematch, Marlon Sandro or some of the other good guys in the weight class there. I don't think any of those guys are unbeatable.

He needs to string some good wins together, he's still probably top 15, but another loss and he could be in washed up territory.

There is no doubt that he's done. If he wants to make a real comeback, he needs to get into a good camp instead of screwing around with all of his friends at his own school. He just doesn't have the same pep in him that he used to.

Compared to what he used to be he's definitely washed up. He and Faber used to be a dream fight for me but at this point Faber would steamroll him. He's lost his swagger and rightfully so.

I wouldn't say it is over, but I can see the utensils being prepared at this point.

He looked like he had the pep in his step facing Kanehara and if he'd gotten the nod which he probably should have, we'd all be like HE'S BACK. But to fight the Sengoku champion for three razor thin rounds to me means he is on the right track.
