one judge gave santos the 4th, but not the 2nd or 5th. one judge gave jon the 2nd but not the 5th. lol

The only clear rounds were 1 and 3, honestly none of these scorecards are bad

I'd have to watch it again, but I remember thinking DC was winning the rematch until he ran face first into a shin, but he did sooo

lol "He brought planking back"

What did Askren do that pissed off Masvidal so much anyways? Just regular fight hype?

According to Jorge, they had a little bit of sparring back in 08, and Ben says he dominated, which Jorge disagrees with, and is upset that he broke gym code of "don't talk poo poo about what happens in sparring"

Also Idk if Robbie is still with ATT but could be pissed at Askren for acting indignant after that match given the controversy that didn't land in his teammates favor

Ordered the pay per view, didn't watch it live and the 11am repeat showing has been a test card for the last 17mins. Already had two results spoiled looking for a solution. Great work BT

I'm a big DC fan and really dislike Jones, but Jones was absolutely in charge that whole match. DC did way better than the first fight but he also felt gunshy and Jones never seemed remotely fazed by him at all.

I mean, it turns out part of his confidence came from being a gigantic cheating piece of poo poo, but he still looked like he was going to win the match to me even if he hadn't KOed Cormier.

So postivive of Jones not losing is Johnny Walker now has a chance to beat him.

And I think Santos showed a good game plan and method how to go about doing that.

Also the scorecard for this is sort of all over the place
http://www.mmadecisions.com/decision/10243/Jon-Jones-vs-Thiago-Santos

Just finished catching up on fights and thread and can I just say that 50-45 for Jones is unconscionable and that whoever scored that at MMA Junkie is a loving dumb oval office. 48-47 either way is fine, but it was a garbage fight compared to basically the entire rest of the card.

I would honestly prefer to watch the Markos/Gadelha fight again.

I'm not loyal to anything, General... except the dream.
I don't think Cormier was gunshy in the second fight with Jones at all.
