The last few minutes of round 5 we're insane the multiple switch stances from Leon the body kick that was labeled a bs nut shot the multiple inside leg kicks the 1-2 from othrodox then the final pump jab dip pump 1-2 causing Usman to slip right into a murder shot roundhouse from Leon

Tybura vs. Romanov is biggest(or one of) robberies in history of UFC.

I don't think it near the biggest robbery just because Romanov should of got a draw instead of a lost so even if the judges did get it right, Romanov wouldn't of won anyways. also judges are usually pretty stingy with 10-8 rounds, I have no clue what 10-8 round means

I thought Buday vs Breski was the worst robbory in some time, I don't think anyone can change my mind on that

@Duck I think the problem with 10-8's, especially on this forum, is that people genuinely don't know that 10-7's are a thing. First was 10-8 for Romanov IMO.

Are 10-7's and 10-10's really a thing when no actual living judge has used them to influence a fight score in MMA?

Chimaev was given a 10-7 against Rhees Mckee IIRC.

Gotcha, I see a decent amount of 10-10's imo but never scored. 

Honestly think it's a lil odd, not every round in fighting will there be a definite winner; its so subjective, even if there is a "rulebook" to scoring.

I have literally NEVER seen a 10-10 round. Never seen a 10-7 rounds either but ik they exist. 10-10 rounds don’t even exist, and if they do then judges literally never give them out. Not once. They should give both out more often. I don’t think this was a 10-8 round because Tybura was never close to being finished, but if 10-7 rounds do exist then that definitely should’ve been a 10-8


As for 10-10s they should ESPECIALLY be given out. So many fights have them, but I reckon it would lead to a lot more draws so thinking about it again maybe not

Of course it’s some weird Japanese fight no one’s ever heard of. Well if they exist they’ve never been given out in a major promotion and idk why

The way the unified rules are written I can understand why there are few 10-10s. How often is it that neither fighter demonstrates either more effective striking or more effective grappling or both during a round? And as DrChaotic pointed out, more 10-10s = more draws, which doesn't make anyone happy.

gwinCLARKE2019 definitely. The probability of a definable 10-10 is just far more remote than a 10-7 or 10-8. It would mean both fighters were totally equal in everything, even control. That's just a really rare phenomenon.
