30-27, Cruz.

But he's getting tired, scary with that right kick lingering there.

TJ needs a finish, not outside the realms of possibility.

Well... I guess we have our answer. Swinging at air tires you more quickly than anything.

3 rounds for Dom. TJ's gassing from being so aggressive in the early rounds and missing so much. Flat footed and breathing out of his mouth. I'd like to see Dom go on the offensive more and leave no doubt for the judges. I don't want to see TJ win this fight on the scorecards in a Leonard Garcia/Diego Sanchez way by throwing more and being crazy aggressive.

That leg kick hurt him pretty bad.
Hope nothing too bad.

Round 4. Damn that was pretty close. I could see it going both ways.
But I would say 3-1 now.

10-9 for TJ. His best round by far. Dom's slowing down now significantly as well. I still think if the judges have a brain TJ needs a finish to win or a 10-8 for a draw. I think it's pretty crystal clear that it's 3-1 Dom at this point.
