Really surprised Eric hasn't tried to make this fight really grapple heavy yet. Almost all his UFC fights have been stalemated wrestling matches.

Hard round to score, Shelton was the busier fighter but Espinosa with good head movement and securing a takedown

Second round was a little closer. Espinosa seemed to react more to the strikes from Shelton and that could impact judges perception even if Espinosa landed more.

Oh my god I hope the judges aren't as one-sided stupid as Cormier. Can't stand Espinoza's style. Shelton should win this fight.

I think Shelton took the 3rd. rd 2 was close and rd 1 was Espinosa. Shelton continues to be a king of close decisions.
