I love how people just out themselves as not knowing the ruleset which they have a strong opinion in. Volume, grappling < DAMAGE

Collier won that simple.

1st round I gave the edge to Collier, but the striking was 16-16 in sig strikes. In round 2 Arlovski landed more and in round 3 I leaned Collier, but it was close. There was no clear "loser"

@Nick I don't care what you think. I already know you don't understand the criteria nor how to apply it.

I think this is the first time since the beginning of the year that a close split decision or a robbery went my way. I have lost lots of picks on ******** judges decisions.

So I am going to take it. Arlovski all the way Lol!

@Baldric at least I know not to take you serious now. Keep playing the fool who thinks he knows it all.

It was Collier's time to shine. His whole career led up to this point, and finally have that big name on his resume. They took the man's soul. I feel for my man Collier. :(

Baldric is wrong on 95% of the decisions yet yells everybody is wrong after every fight. Baldric maybe use that pea sized brain to read the rules :)

@Crimson you're right, but it's more about meaning. Immediate damage which contributes to  the fight being drawn to a conclusion or visible dominance being displayed by one fighter is the primary criteria.

Vera should grapple and use leg kicks. I like his chances here

Collier did not get out landed ffs. He got two takedowns, landed the bigger shots, landed more head shots, more total shots, and had two takedowns.

Did Andrei get clocked? Yes at least four times. Jake got his nose smashed in a head butt. He was never hurt at any point.

Bad decision. Not in the top five of robberies, but objectively Collier won that fight.

When I big guy like Collier throws those big looping shots it looks like a truck crashing cause it pushes whatever it hits back. It’s not the same impact as it looks often however. The whole movements are big and make it look huge in every way. Arlovski sharp shots landed clean did similar damage. I personally gave Collier rounds 1 & 3. I also thought 2 could’ve been his. It was a very tight round. 8 also thought 3 was close too though. I agree It was no robbery but did think Jake won.

@Crimson we can have a debate about the criteria if you like, but you won't win.
