I get what you're saying. If those punches almost finished the fight it would be different.

It's not an exact science, but there is an equation to it

Turner won. Hurt him every single round and dominated on the feet for 4/5 of every round. Gamrot is **** and won't make it far relying on his dog water wrestling and JJ.

Don't be too harsh on Turner, he had to fix his grappling and his cardio for this fight and I'd say both looked better than ever. He just started from a pretty low point in those two areas.

He's so talented that I wouldn't have been surprised if he won. But I also rate Gamrot a little bit lower than most.

Turner had his moments, but Gamrot won clearly (although the fight was quite close). He feels that after the Benny fight, Gamrot needs to improve his striking, but today he clearly wasn't going to see as much improvement by taking the fight on short notice.

It’s pretty annoying how a fanbase of bloodthirsty spectators watching to people batter each other’s brains in at a modern day gladiatorial arena can simultaneously be completely incapable of taking an L.
