I like Vettori, but under what criteria Vettori won the first round. For me very clear 29-28 Dolidze, in the third round Roman connected the best strikes and put Vettori against the cage all the round.

Literally the only thing Vettori landed in round 3 was a few leg kicks

If damage is the most important criteria then I think Dolidze clearly wrong… but I could be biased

And Roman was whiffing more right hands than a blind wife beater, what’s your point?

I think they waited this long to induct Silva bc of the PEDs. Had to let that **** fade a bit.

Assume what you want. I’m honest when decisions go for or against people I bet on. Herbert took the second off so cost a bet, was lucky to get the win from Murphy. I think he lost 2 and 3 and so did morales. Vettori did not win round 1 or 3 and if all things are close control counts. Yes dolidze missed more but he landed more as well and his shots had more of an impact

Roman's eyes swell shut every fight. Vettori doesn't deserve three rounds of credit based on superficial "damage". Roman landed more damaging punches.

Was not a robbery easily could have gone to either fighter however the 3 rounds to none is heavy debatable. Roman definitely doesn't look bad coming out this fight though.
