I gave that round to Menjivar. He landed more strikes IMO, but it's hard to really pick a definitive winner here. 19-19 so far.

Somebody has to really do something significant here. Menjivar has been backing up almost the entire fight. The judges might see it for Easton.

Damn, I thought he would get an armbar here, but it looks like Easton is going to ride the decision...

Not the most exciting fight, but I think that Easton won it 29-28. Easton sewed it up with the takedown.
