Supersonic 4,654 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 I went to bed after the Reem fight - I was struggling like fuck to keep my eyes open. Only just finished catching up with the rest of the fights. Glad I went to bed to be fair, cause that main event was trash Thought the women's fight was decent, as was the Teymur/Vannata fight too. (can't see Lando having a long career taking hits like that consistently!) That main event was one of the worst title fights I can recall watching. I thought Wonderboy won to be honest. In a weird way though, thank fuck he didn't or we might've had to sit through a trilogy fight! Also, think Rashad should probably hang up the gloves...

Da Kool Blue 139 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 7 hours ago, lidorfc said: So the 2 judges that scored the fight for Woodley gave him 10-9 rounds in rounds 2,3 and 4. That is mind boggling, they gave Thompson round 5, even more mind boggling. [edit] Just rewatched it. Thompson being given round 5 when he landed significantly less strikes and less cage control is odd, and for another judge to give it a 10-8 round to Woodley when it was nothing like a 10-8 round is odd. It seems like the 2 judges that have given Woodley round 2 did so because of 4 significant strikes landed by Woodley to Thompsons 0, but overall strikes were even and Thompson controlled the Octagon for the full round. I think neither of them won it and it was a draw, again. I really, really hope Damian Maia chokes out Masvidal and gets a title shot, he deserves it. Whenever I hear Sal D'amato's named as a judge, I know 9 times out of 10 there is going to be some fuckery, either with him or one of his buddies.

I didn't watch the interviews, it's just that in my head I was booing both of them so I imagine most people were booing both also. I appreciate a tactical fight, but that was just two fighters scared to pull the trigger and being unwilling to risk losing decisively. I'm completely torn on how I think it went, scoring wise I would probably give it to Wonderboy, but I just think a draw would have been the fairest result. I think it is clear that Woodley is the better fighter though, 10 rounds with Thompson doing very little, I reckon we will see a trilogy fight in a few years.

esquire8 42,898 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 It's a pity that British fighters are not to the standard of the support and money they get from the fans. Only reason they get big fights now is the money we generate in this country Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
