Scoring for Figueiredo vs Moreno - Poll

[Chael_Sonnen]

So, I'm curious as to how the good people of sherdog scored this one.

As far as I can see, it came down to two rounds. Figgy clearly won the first and the fifth. Moreno clearly won the 4th, and got a point for the foul.

So, how do you score rounds 2 and 3?

I scored round 2 to Figgy, and round 3 for Moreno. I didn't think it was particularly hard to score, and I think it should have been a clear cut draw, not the majority draw that it was.

I've seen people make the argument that Moreno won the second round, and I have to say, I don't see it. I also don't see Figgy winning the third round, I thought that was pretty clearly for Moreno.

I scored the 2nd as Tracy Cortez's ass being severely under rated.

 

[Arkham's Notorious Geyser]

I think Figgy won 1, 2, and 5 imo.

Moreno broke his hand in the 5th and threw next to nothing for the first half. And the first two rounds Figueiredo landed the cleaner and harder shots that draw the stronger reactions. Moreno's TD's were a factor, but I don't think anyone can argue that when Figgy hit him, Moreno felt it. He soldiered on because he's tough as fuck, but he was still getting tagged.

Having a good chin doesn't mean the shots aren't scored, those shots would have KO'ed a horse, so they still matter.

I agree with all of what you just said.

47/47 draw, let them fight again.

I had figgy 1,2,3,5 with a 9-9 3rd
I thought Moreno won the 4th but gave the last round away. It was an awesome fight and don't disagree with a draw either.

This is my thought as well. Can't wait for them to run it back.

Fig won 1, 2 and 5. Suredawg play by play on the main page agrees with me. All three saw it the same way. They also saw round three 9-9 like I did, with Brandon only winning round four.

To think that it took an idiot judge giving Moreno the fifth and an uncharacteristic point deduction on one nut kick to make this a draw is hilariously sad and utterly ridiculous.

And I like Moreno a good deal.

Moreno won both...and won the fight..

Moreno will win the rematch...if Figgy is man enough take it didnt seem like he wanted that smoke again in the post fight interview though..

Claiming he had a tummy virus lmao was in the hospital during covid yet still fought lmfao ya okay bud

I was doing the math going into the 5th and concluded that it’s 47-47 if Fig wins the 5th, 48-46 Moreno if Moreno wins the 5th. Thought Fig won the 5th and have no idea how one judge came up with a 47-46

To me it was:

1: Fig 10-9
2: Fig 10-9
3: Moreno 10-8 (point deduction)
4: Moreno 10-9
5: Fig 10-9

Easy 47-47 to me

Fuck yeah man, the rematch is going to be Crazy, and I'm already looking forward to it.

About yesterday, my bad haha, these fights were ON something so I really wasn't being my usual drawn out self. I'm gutted for Tony losing but the writing's been on the wall in my opinion.

I was going to make a thread and @ you about the stoppage and say you were right, but I'm to busy playing on my PC lol, but since I got you, I will concede that it was a bad stoppage. Tough to call, but Big John broke it down beautifully on The Weighing Podcast, and as I was making breakfast I was like "Damn that dude was right, I gotta hold that L" haha.

So good on you man, I'll link the video if you want, but he said the Ref had already made his decision and at the time it was good, but when Moicano came to it was a bad decision, but it was too late.

 

[Kryptt]

I scored it like Sal did...



But between sippin a bit an chattin in the PBP I may have overlooked moments.

Don't worry about it man, I get it, the fights were bonkers, it was easy to be more on edge than usual.

It was a tough call, and I respect how hard the job of ref is. I just wish he had been a tad slower in his decision.

I'm gutted for Tony as well, and especially that I doubt he has been particularly smart about his money management. I saw someone say that he might go completely Diego Sanchez, and I hate to say it, but its a high possibility at this point.

But holy hell, Oliveira looked awesome. Hope he gets a TS, or Gaethje. He should go through Gaethje like butter, probably faster than Khabib did.

And hell yeah, the rematch will be crazy. Although how it will live up to the first match, I have no idea lol.

 

[Chappi]

I've never scored a fight round by round, but overall I'm ok with the draw.

 

[matrat103]

As soon as the point got deducted I told the guys I was watching with that it was gonna be a draw. Came down to the 5th round and Figgy did what he needed to do to keep his belt.

 

[Tweak896]

As a whole figgy won the fight. That low blow was 100% accidental. Great fight, but Figgy walked him down the whole fight.

 

[Mr Joyboy]

Didn't watch, so I say draw.
