I'm personally not too bothered by the main event decision, I'm okay with a draw even though I think Ankalaev did enough to win 3 rounds, I just hate that the belt is vacant. 

as far as the co-main, I rewatched it and I still give 2 rounds to Gordon, no clue how anyone can justify scoring it in favor of Paddy

100% agree with everything you said here. I'm cool with a draw because it was a weird fight to score and I thought Ankalaev won, but on the other hand. Gordon's fight was not a weird fight to score. That man got robbed.

I just watched ankalaev vs Jan back and I think a draw was correct imo, round 1 was super close but jan won it imo with more damage

Jared was fighting Paddy the UFC and the judges all by himself, he deserved at least a split decision and a bonus check. Never seen a single fighter take on that many opponents at once.

I think Marvin is a bad matchup for DDP - can't take Orcboy down or hurt him easily.

Agreed but it would be hilarious both are weird and unorthodox in style, too soon for DDP I feel.
