Round 2 and 3 were Aljo, but no damage happened hence why there wasn't a 10-8 score. Round 4 and 5 were Yan. It really depends how you scored Round 1.

Easier to complain about judges than revising strategy for including favorites in parlays whose line is way too juiced to be a profitable long term bet

Unfortunately to my knowledge you don't know ahead of time who the judges will be. At least what I found because I have tried to find out in the past for similar reasons

It would be very interesting from a betting perspective to know

Whoever thinks Aljo actually won round 1 should know 12 sign. strikes out of 26 is better than 19 out of 40 sign. strikes landing lmaoo some people need to go back to math class

@Oldnick R2 was a 10-8. Damage doesn't need to occur for a 10-8 to be earned. One fighter needs to simply show total domination for the round. You don't know how scoring works.

I picked Yan, and that was a draw. And I have spoken.

Sterling won off 2 rounds of control time, that’s literally it. Can’t even give him the respect of the 2 takedowns dude shot 22 of them, that’s a horrible percentage. Should be viewed just as bad as a horrible striking percentage

This is a huge moment for Zombie… he’s soaking it all in. Gotta respect it.
