Murphy congratulated Evloev in his post-fight Octagon interview, while also calling for the Russian to get the next featherweight title shot. However, Murphy is seemingly having second thoughts after rewatching the fight. Not one to talk much, the Englishman posted a laughter emoji upon rewatching the fight.
