Well KRs cardio was a question as in he wins rd 1 all the time so not much decision fights to cap but I usually assume that cardio is ok until proven otherwise.

Vergara is good but that was a bad decision imo. He was winning the first two minutes because of ground control and once he got reveresed he lost the last three

****, it sucks to get robbed, and lose a fight just because the ref won't call your opponent out for blatant fence grabs.

Judges never take a point away unless it's blatant nut shots or multiple eye pokes. It reminds me of the Tim Elliot fight where he cheated quite a few times without punishment

Only a robbery in the sense CJ should’ve had been taken a point for being a cheating bastard but you’re just butthurt if you thought Rodrigues won the third lol

This is either going to be Cortez putting on an loopy-esque performance or gatto gets yet another comeback win

I chose Rodriguez and I kinda wish he got the nod, but I’m not mad about the decision. I REALLY hope Cortez can Godinez Gatto though. Dominate her for 3 rounds

There's absolutely no problem with CJ being given the third.  Rodrigues basically got funky chickened in the first half of the fight, slumped to the mat and ended up in control, where he did nothing.

That was not a robbery.
