My goodness, that is a nightmare scenario.

Awful late stoppage. That ref has no place in this business.

Holy shit that stoppage is insane. That was brutal.

Turner was sharp. I think it's time for a real test for him.

He lost the two fights prior AND was above the weight limit in his last loss against Hooker. Also, it is not like Bobby Green had a stellar record before this fight. So I think Turner still has a lot of work to do. Although looking at the rankings and considering he has a marketable fighting style, maybe you're right and they're giving him fighters up the ranking like Beneil of Fiziev next.

Not saying he should fight top 5. But 10-15 sounds fair for me.

Bobby green is not a worldbeater but knocking him out that quickly is impressive

Yes, definitely impressive. I thought you meant that Turner hasn't been properly challenged yet, but top 10-15 sounds fair.
