Formiga apparently doesn't have sponsors which is weird since he's a well known fight.

That stand up was pretty bad.

Formiga was very active on the ground.

Did Formiga even land 1 strike in top position?

10-9 Formiga

Could have been 10-8 if Cariaso hadn't landed those elbows from the bottom and hadn't the referee stood them up.

@MikeLovesTacos XD Formiga uses his BJJ to pass, transition and look for submissions, not for striking.

So this is what happens when a world class BJJ guy actually uses his world class BJJ?

Formiga is being lazy. He's barely throwing any strikes in the top position. He is clearly winning, do something with it.
