Hissssssss. Thats his best argument for a quick rematch. Hissssssssss
 
I fully agree. I'm not fan of either of them. I scored it for TJ.
 
If shadow boxing is a scoring technique he definitely got robbed.
 
I don't remember the fight very well but I think Dilly punched so much air that it simply made him look helpless, independent from the stuff he may have landed. Didn't look good for the judges to miss 20 strikes in a row.
 
From what I remember

First 3: Cruz
4th - TJ
5th - close

That was part of Bang's plan lol.

Seriously.
 
He 50-45 the air in the octagon but no way in hell he beat Cruz.

Fight was close but Dominick outworked him. I think a rematch will be clearer for Cruz.
 
LOL neither guy overwhelmed the other, so there was no robbery.

It was a close fight, but The snake whisperer pulled it off narrowly imo

I disagree, Cruz was the better fighter and he rightfully won.
 
Robbed is a big word, but it was a close fight that could be scored his way. Cruz avoided a lot of punches but he didn't land more than TJ.
 
Extremely close fight.

I might take TJ in the rematch. He hit a little bit too much air but he could hurt Dom, where Dom couldn't hurt TJ.
 
It was a good close scrap. I'd have to rewatch it. It's closer than most people admit on here. I remember TJ picking it up the last few rounds.

I'd love to see a rematch actually. That should be Cruz's next title defense.

If Cody wins his next fight, Cody should get Linekar for a #1 contender fight.
 
I don't think he was robbed but based on the judging criteria he should have won. The judging criteria states that harder strikes count for more than slightly more volume, Dillashaw and Cruz landed almost the same number of strikes and there was very little grappling, Dillashaw landed the hardest shots of the fight and was the aggressor so based on the Unified judging criteria Dillashaw won a close fight.

It seems to me that Cruz somehow got points for dodging(you're not supposed to award points for defense).
