30-27 Cub?!

I'm not arguing that he should have won the first, but if the ref didn't take a point, then the judges have to score it as if there weren't a foul. Only the ref can take a point, so that's on him.
 
To be fair kawijiri did nothing with the takedown. Cub did more in the first half while they were standing and the second half he got laid on. Effective striking comes before effective grappling.

I could see it scored either way

kawajiri also rocked him with that right cross, plus takedown, mount
thats a kawajiri round in anyone's eyes, unless your blind

29-28 swanson

swanson is lucky he didn't get a pt taken away in the 2nd
kawajiri has guts fighting through that illegal knee
