UFC Featherweight Competent Lerone Murphy clapped back with his critics after a Times Slow Fight on UFC Vegas 105.
Lerone Murphy achieved the biggest victory of his young UFC career by beating the former interim title -Uitdager Josh Emmett at UFC Vegas 105. Murphy remains unbeaten after frustrating Emmett with a technical approach to a unanimous decision victory.
Murphy is an emerging talent in the UFC -Fedweight Division and suppressed the great threat of Emmett in the Octagon. He avoided the fate that Bryce Mitchell, Ricardo Lamas and others suffered the ranking during the rise of Emmett.
But the victory of Murphy did not suffer many fight fans who feel that he was running away from Emmett in their main event Matchup.

Murphy wiggled Emmett poorly in the opening round and appeared to earn a quick finish. But instead of running into the bag, Murphy opted for a smart approach, he played the Matador role and outdoor fights from outside.
At round 5, Emmett was visibly frustrated by Murphy's careful approach in the Octagon and mocked him for 'run' in the last minutes. Murphy's smart game plan has paid off with a decisive victory over the jury's scorecards.
But many fans on social media were not free of the technical performance of Murphy, so he speaks out and explains his approach to his critics. But in a follow-up, Murphy placed a hilarious example of what he tried to avoid on UFC Vegas 105.
In a recent message to X, Murphy answered his critics hilariously.
