Barboza won that fight...

@executionermma

You fucking retarded autist

A split decision has everything to do with how close a fight went

You're legitimately autistic. Fuck out of here.

If the judges disagree its a pretty strong sign that the fight could have gone either way
lmao you legit typed that "No way a UD for barboza. At best a split decision." and i'm the retarded one here?
welcome to my ignore list, go fuck yourself dumb fuck moron
 
Could've been up but he did NOTHING in the 3rd other than run. I think that he needs to make adjustments based on the fact that everything knows that pressure is his kryptonite. He needs to evolve.
If he won the first two rounds, then who gives a fuck if he did nothing in the 3rd? 2-1 Barboza, unless you think the 3rd was a 10-8 for Paul and then you are a retard.
 
I was surprised Cruz could commentate with Felders cock in his mouth.
 
I mean he was up 2 rounds to any competent judge lmao

Can possibly see 2-1 Felder at a push, but whoever scored it 30-27 Felder needs to be taken out of that arena in handcuffs
Absolutely. No way around it.

Who was that judge? He/she should never be allowed to judge a fight again. Not even in the minor leagues.
 
This particular fight is reinforcing this opinion I'm forming that's controversial.
I think a lot of judging is fixed in favour of a hot young up and comer. It's not obvious fixing. It's subtle. If it's subtle, it's hard to outright prove.
If you've got one strong fighter who has become a gatekeeper Vs one new fresh exciting fighter who offers fun match ups and hype, the latter will win a close decision, even if the fight was clearly in favour of the former.

I've been keeping tabs of some: -
OSP Vs Volkan Oezdemir.
When these two fought, Oezdemir was a new prospect and OSP had just shown his ceiling after KOed by Jimi Manuwa.
I watched that fight and I had it for OSP. It was a close fight though.
Volkan Oezdemir Vs Dominick Reyes.
Similar thing happened ironically to Volkan after his loss to Anthony Smith revealed he is no longer considered a prospect while Dom is still unbeaten.
Again, I watched that fight and I really had Volkan winning.
Ray Borg Vs Casey Kenney. Same thing. I had Borg winning that one
Paul Felder Vs Edson Barboza. Felder offers inrigue as he's popular backstage and could be a challenge to Khabib. Edson going back up the ranks offers nothing new if he faces Tony or Khabib again. He's a kicking specialist.
Multiple fights against Arlovski. He's bee fucked over in some of his recent fights. It's obvious he'll never be a challenge to Stipe or Ngannou so the judging favours any new prospect put in front of him, like Augusto Sakai.
Jeremy Stephens Vs Zabit Magomedsharipov. I had Stephens winning that fight just barely. Of course, he too is a perennial gatekeeper. If he has a fought close contest with Yair, just watch he judging favour Yair, who is another interest prospect and contender to face Max Holloway.

I can probably remember more in time. It's becoming more obvious to spot them as I watch UFC regularly and you can tell who has favourable momentum.
makes sense
 
I had it Felder 30-27 the same as one of the judges.
 
I thought Barboza WAS up two rounds. Round 2 was indisputably Edson's, in my opinion.

Barboza got beaten up and had to escape a submission in round 2. More damage and a submission attempt is more important than a few more strikes and a takedown that leads to you getting beaten up.
 
29-28, Felder. They both had 1 retarded 30-27 each, but one judge got it right. Barboza will waste his time trying to overturn the decision, as the guy who had him winning all 3 rounds was also pants on head retarded.
 
How did Felder win round two? Outside the elbows off the back Barboza still outstruck him.

Damage is more important than volume when it comes to striking, Felder did more damage in round 2 and also was closest to finishing the fight with the submission attempt. How did Barboza win round 2 when he got beat up more and was closer to being finished?

<YeahOKJen>
 
Yeah it was a robbery because it was clear and easy to score. 29-28.
 
Maybe they scored surviving those body kicks for Felder. That was impressive.
 
29-28 Barboza easily. And I wanted Felder to win, too.

That’s a stupid metric that’s completely subjective. By your logic GSP or Diaz would lose every fight. That sub attempt wasn’t even close and he still got outstruck that round
 
I scored 1 for Edson, 3 for Barboza and 2 was razor thin either way. I have no problem with Felder getting the nod, particularly because Edson was evading a fight in the third, but to score it 30-27 to Felder is comical.
