1-1 and I don't think Cejudo wins this last round, unless he catches Merab with something

10-9 Merab: Cejudo slowed down, Merab landed big shots in the standing and control the second half of this round with his grappling.

19-19 After two rounds.

Merhab does it with more volume and more dominantly while Sterling goes for more submissions

10-9 merab, the tide appears to be turning in his favour, 19-19 anyway so it comes down to the third here

You could make an argument that there is no argument that it's 1-1 going into the 3rd.
