Explain how Woodley won that fight. Which of rounds 1,2,4 did he win?How could someone be happy with Thompson winning that decision? Least effective offense that I've ever seen.

1 and 2 basically had nothing happening.
if nothing happened then shouldn't octagon control be rewarded?

Bro, you didn't answer the question.1 and 2 basically had nothing happening. It shouldn't be shocking when you have two definitive rounds for Woodley, one definitive round for Thompson, and then two rounds with very little offense on either side. Thompson didn't do shit in that fight.
Exactly, my jaw was almost on the floor when he said you can't get a 10-8 for 50 seconds of work. You can nearly kill a man 6 times over in 50 seconds. Just bizarre.He said a ton of weird shit
He said basically 10-10 is unacceptable. He tried to backtrack from that later, but he said it. We will not see ANY 10-10's in Vegas.
He also said 10-8 Rd 5 was "unacceptable"
I just find both statements to be very interesting and telling for fights in Vegas going forward. At least until they adopt new rules/scoring.
People bet on fights expecting the judges to follow the judging criteria. There is not precedent for scoring a fight that way.You can't complain about the result of a fight in which neither guy did anything for 23 minutes
Bro we have all been screwed by judging before. Better to just accept it and move forward. We got another two events back to back, so less crying more capping.People bet on fights expecting the judges to follow the judging criteria. There is not precedent for scoring a fight that way.
I didn't have a dime on the fight and laughed at people who were picking the fight confidently. It's the principle here that we need consistency in judging to maximize profits long-term.Bro we have all been screwed by judging before. Better to just accept it and move forward.

If you listen to Bennett, he said that without saying it. He said that 10-10 is a possibility but in the 3 years he has been in charge, not a single 10-10 has been given in Nevada. He seemed proud of this fact. Add in the fact that he openly criticized the one judge for scoring a 10-8 for Round 5, and it seems clear that they are not going to allow 10-10s in Nevada.Wait just to be clear (I honestly didn't even watch the fight since I was out last night and wasn't gonna buy the ppv to watch recorded with no Ferg/Khabib on the card. But I need some clarity here on what you guys are discussing).
The NSAC are or are not saying 10-10 rounds are acceptable? A "10 point must" scoring system has always meant that at least one fighter is awarded 10 points. If the other fighter does less, he's awarded an amount less than 10. But to my knowledge there's never been anything released saying that 10-10 rounds are unacceptable. Is that actually what the NSAC is saying? No 10-10 rounds in Vegas?
That's definitely good to know one way or the other.
That doesn't mean much. The commission will always have the judges back (at least in public).The NSAC commissioner at the press conference said that he agreed with two of his three judges that Woodley won round 2.
Pretty much feel the same way. WB won for sure based on the scoring criteria but I can't bother being upset because he didn't do shit for 5 rounds. What sucks is that I bought out of my Woodley bet and hopped on WB DEC instead on LB.I scored it 3-2 to WB. However WB did fuck all he only brought it on himself.
