Yeah so now I know why Puerta never had a shot in the UFC despite being a Titan Champion and undefeated in years. He's boring AF!!!!
He's winning the fight but he's going back to Titan FC!!!

That shouldn't have gone the distance, didn't even try to shot on him at all in the third, even though he was getting the better of Shang and wearing him down with his top control.

Ya I wouldn’t give the winner a contract. Both guys didn’t really show urgency and both were pretty boring fighters. Plus idek if either is ufc ready, their striking both sucks

Puerta wins, shang needs more weapons he's very basic, all he has is a right hook, a leg kick, and a rear naked choke.

No matter who wins they don't deserve a contact.

Puerta took that round off it seems. He didn't even look tired or anything, just played it safe. 29-28 Puerta imo but the judges have seen things differently recently especially on DWCS
