Finally got to watch this last week because there was no way in hell I was buying a PPV headlined by this fight.
I actually scored it for Henry because clearly Sterling took round 5 off and I had it 2-2 going into the 5th. Big mistake to assume you're up as we saw last night in KKF/Albazi.
First was pretty clearly Sterling but Cejudo adjusted in the 2nd and I gave that one and the 3rd to him and the 4th to Aljamain. Just like Lawler/Hendricks 2, sometimes a "bad" decision can be good because Cejudo winning would have sucked. I don't particularly like Aljamain but he's better than Henry.
