Remember Pat Barry vs Kongo? That is why fighters don't rush in for the finish if their opponent is still standing. Santiago was rocked but still dangerous. Plus Gunnar was up on the cards. Nothing wrong Gunnar's fight IQ in this case.

This was the first time Gunnar hasn't finished a fight, not counting his debut. So saying that he doesn't show huger to finish a fight doesn't seem fair...

Going 15 minutes with Maia isn't really that hard anymore

If you watch the post fight press conference, he says he stood to get experience standing
