Well Arce finally got a takedown but only got his back, and nothing else. Dawodu was back up in a minute and I thought he won the rest of the round. So 20-18 Dawodu for me, Arce needs a finish on my card.

I think it's too early in the night for a robbery, but you never know. Dawodu should be up 2-0

Not the best fight I've seen. Not a single ******* combination attempted. This could go either way, I'd say 29-28 Dawodu but who knows.

Wow I thought arce did enough, that’s why I always watch fights without any sound that way I just focus on the fight and not on anyone’s biased opinion, good fight though; congrats to the winner.

 Dawodu landed the heavier shots (primary criteria) and caused damage (primary criteria) and controlled where the fight went the majority of the time. The low kick was the most significant strike of the fight. Clear win for Dawodu. The cumulative damage and one takedown wasn't enough to score it for Arce. Reversals and takedowns defended are scored the same as takedowns, don't forget.
