I think rounds like that should be scored 10-8.

Taking an opponent down, or grinding him on the wall are boring to watch, but at Least demands some work from the fighter.
But literally running from the fight like that should be punished as a 10-8 round to disencourage things like that.

What you guys think about ?
 
Never forget the GOAT:

Pretty sure he got a 10-7 round in there.

It was pathetic display but 10-9 because the vet couldn't finish a guy clearly scared of him.

I think that could actually work (both practically and for the fans) if there was a strict two warnings and then a point deduction system in place. I always liked PRIDE's yellow/red card system, and EVEN THEN some of the fights were snoozers. But a full point deduction would rule.
 
we need prime THIRD ROUND Yoel Romero vs THIRD ROUND Zalal open weight fight.

UNBREAKABLE vs UNSTOPPABLE
 
Zalal still technically outlanded him in round three, despite the running. Albeit, by 1, and Kattar's shots were definitely better.
 
He wasn't running he still landed punches he was moving a lot. While not great when there are decisions and you are up 2 for sure that's on the other guy to corner and hurt you. You are there to get the win and move on
 
Zalal styled on Kattar for ten minutes. Made him punch air for the last five while still landing strikes of his own. Soundly won.

This is after four previous finishes in a row in the UFC, and six total, while now on a seven fight winning streak, and all everyone is doing is crying about a single round.

Plus, he went full matrix on Katar defensively in the third. There was one combo Katar threw that was like a 3 piece, soda and head kick, all which Zalal was like a ghost vanishing.

Eh, I forgive him. He fought hard the first two rounds and took a wide lead. He had every right to try to draw a desperate katter into making a mistake; An Ultimatum. put it all on the line or lose this decision. Katter picked option 2.

That shouldn't be held against Zalal.
