Gave Rounds 1,2,4 To Stipe Miocic And 3,5 To Junior dos Santos ... But I Could Easily See How Someone Would Score Round 2 For dos Santos. Same Goes For Round 5 In Favor Of Miocic, Extremely Close Fight, Hopefully They Rematch

Two 49-46's? No way it was that definitive

I thought Stipe won that fight, but it was obviously super close so you can't really be butthurt. 49-46 is some **** though, I thought Stipe clearly won the first two.

@Outrageous I agree.  Usually why I totally ignore Rogan.  He's bias and usually full of ****.  I do however think where Stipe won rounds 1 and 2 are how he would get JDS up against the cage and throw very clean combos on the break.  JDS was headhunting for most of those rounds and Stipe was hitting a lot of very clean combos in those rounds but couldn't keep that pace.

Had JDS winning 3 4 and 5 but Could have seen 48 47 for either guy. 49 - 46 makes no since to me though.

Before the fight, the Brazilian commentators said that Junior had badly injured his meniscus and almost pulled out. Even if he won, I wonder if that was a good decision.

great fight, I had 48-47 JDS, but it was very close.

JDS is showing those same mistakes he made against Cain, circling (almost turning his back, really) from the cage with his hands down, he was getting tagged easily in the first two rounds. I don't see anyone talking about it, but those body shots took their toil on Miocic' cardio.

anyway, JDS was all messed up again. I fear for brain damage, by now.

I Think 48-47 either way would acceptable but 49-46 is bad I rhought Miocic took the first 2 pretty clearly

I had JDS winning rounds 3,4,5. Rogan praised Stipe any time he did something and didn't say much about JDS being more active through out the fight. Although I will agree 49-46 for either guy is complete garbage. I hope JDS really did have a meniscus injury because if not I fear for his future as a top contender.

yes, there is no way it was 49-46.
