That’s why I said it should be up to the fighter, the ref should ask “do you want the point or the position?”

The low blow could be accidental, but some of these tactics are blatantly dirty. Bad look for a champion.

Can't believe Marty isn't using his signature fence humping or some takedowns. But hey he's winning rn

Usman's punches at distance look slow and kinda weak, and I wonder if he's not able to push off with his legs properly. Just winging arm punches. He's still such a good grappler though. I've got 2-1 Usman with a 10-8.

With the point deduction that's a 10-8 for Usman. Ooof. Leon better watch his weapons.
