100 pitty pat strikes vs 1 bomb, who wins the round?

Good question. I'm given it to pitty pat. Takes more skill and athleticism to throw a bunch of combinations, move in and out.

I don't think it's fair to reward a lazy fighter because he lands one bomb. If you play the laid back one punch strategy you better make sure you finish the guy, other wise you lost the round imo.
 
Romeros eye was sealed shut and his face swollen and busted after the fight.. its a shame people pretend whitaker didn't do anything (i know he injured his right hand but still) Whitaker KO's almost everyone he faces.
Bro it's all trickery. Whittaker dipped his gloves in peanut dust knowing that Romero has a nut allergy, and that's the only reason his eye swelled up like that. That cheater barely touched Romero the entire fight.

According the UFC rules, which almost nobody has reads, a strike scores. There is no distinction between a strike that doesn't do obvious damage and a strike that does obvious damage. "Significant strikes" isn't in the judging rules.

This is plainly wrong.

According to the rules:

Effective Striking is judged by determining the impact or damage of legal strikes landed by a contestant solely based on the results of such legal strikes.
 
What if someone has ‘octogon control and aggressiveness’ for 4:57 of a round, landing nothing.

But gets dropped by a weak looking strike that does no visible damage?

According to the rules, aggressiveness and fight area control are only taken into account if both fighters are equal in terms of effective striking and grappling.
 
In TS' scenario, it's clearly Fighter A. Obviously, "100" is a ridiculous number. But even if we lower it to a more reasonable number (e.g., 20), a single landed punch that only "staggered" Fighter A shouldn't be enough to win the round. The numbers here suggest that Fighter A was the aggressor, controlled the octagon, and dominated the entirety of the round.

The analysis obviously changes if we make it much more realistic (e.g., Fighter A lands 20 "insignificant" strikes, while Fighter B lands 7 strikes, one of which clearly stuns Fighter A). These are the kinds of rounds where legitimate debate can be had.

Side note: I hope we're not talking about Whittaker vs. Yoel. Whittaker certainly doesn't throw "pitty pat" shots. He's a powerful striker who actively looks to end the fight. And although Yoel was never dramatically wobbled, he obviously took heavy damage.
 
Roy Nelson and the Big-Bomb has proven a bad strategy, pit-pat will win every time.
 
lets say Fighter A lands 100 strikes that basically dont do any damage to their opponent.

but Fighter B lands one bomb and rocks and staggers Fighter A in the same round.

Who wins the round?

It depends, were those pitter patter strikes actually kicks that hyper extended the opponents leg, and solid kicks to the gut and head?


Did the bomb result in a knock down? Or just a rocked opponent for a moment?
 
Whichever fighter talked better shit leading up to the fight. Also, the more handsome fighter as long as he looks butch so liking him doesn't seem gay.

Are we talking CM Punk standing attempted guard pull body strikes?

Even then 100 wins.

But really you can't make rules a out this, too many variables.
Even knock downs can't be assured to be the biggest strikes, often it's a result of balance.

For instance Kevin Lee's dance spectacular wasn't a knockdown.
 
Use to be the fighter that came the closest to finishing hi opponent at some point during the round. The one punch would have to do more then just stagger the fighter. You would need at least a knock down.
 
Calzaghe.

But as for sherdoggers, it's who they jack off to or who they had money on.
In every fight.
No matter how the fight goes.

Ps. Whitickar won.

im talking condit vs Diaz type strikes where the leg kicks litterally did nothing. if anything it might've given Nick a massage, hence making him better since his leg is feeling good, thus the leg kicks should be considered negative points.

Well some knock downs dont actually hurt people. If someone does the stanky leg from a punch, thats way more impactfull then someone getting knocked off balance.
Im talking about a strike that seriously disorientates someone, whether it knocks them down or not... like Barbozas kick on Lee.
