How do people think Till won Round 5??

[MyFavSport]

Just because of the blood??

Got outstruck and taken down

R3 also Robert and when you get down too it also R4.

Till not active enough and people ignoring Robert's success

 

[Okajima]

He was terrible.

 

[tripleo]

he won round 1, that's it

 

[car epic win]

its like you guys only watch the total strikes table and not the actual fight

 

[BRASIL WAND]

Landed the most significant strike of the round and did the most damage.

Going like 3/20 in takedowns is NOT effective offense.

 

[DivineMind]

its like you guys only watch the total strikes table and not the actual fight

This. Aside from the GnP I had Till landing the most vicious shots of the match. Rob on the volume.

 

[ReyesWon]

Because we watched it?

Wait, you actually believe those strike counts they flash on the screen?

I bet you watch cnn a lot.

 

[ReyesWon]

its like you guys only watch the total strikes table and not the actual fight

That strike counter is despicable.

Just absolutely fake.

Sheep eat it up.

 

[Ares Black]

Till 1,4,5

 

[taugrim]

"Just bleed'

I had Whittaker winning 2-5.

 

[Talon81]

Whittaker 2, 3, 4, 5
1 was close, but Till
2 could have been 10-8 for Whittaker
3 was close, but Whittaker
4 was very close, could have gone to Till, but should be Whittaker
5 easily Whittaker. A single strike that produces blood but not even a stumble doesn't change the round

 

[realdmone1]

till fought especially scared and non aggressive after round 2 and people say he won rounds 4 and 5 ? bahahah OMG I AM GOING TO HAVE A HEART ATTACK LMAO GTFO

He landed much better shots and did way more damage.

 

[rev0lver]

Rob only won on volume, adding in lots of leg kicks, but whiffed most of his shots. Till played a sharp technical game and landed good, clean shots most of the time he threw. And in certain rounds, those strikes out-did Rob's volume.

I had Till 48-47, but it's a close fight. I don't think someone should be mad if it went the other way.

48-47 Whittaker.

 

[Nip Tickler]

Rob missed everything besides half ass leg kicks. Till threw 1,2s around 2 or 3 times and opened him up late. What did Rob do is my question?

 

[AladdinSane]

Till pushed the action and landed better shots while the former champ coasted on his pedigree, and that ESPECIALLY applied to round 5

. Whittaker era is done he is now a boring Machida style fighter. A decent champ for a moment but is no longer driven to excite. He has good TDD, footwork and stance changes, but ultimately has nothing to add to the future of the division. Awesome gatekeeper but he may just continue to decision contenders out of their title shots for a bit.

 

[Fahcough]

Till is a gatekeeper, nothing more. UFC needs to give up on the international superstar bullshit and treat him as such.
Correct decision was made.

Those leg kicks was making till limp for a second.

 

[Talon81]

Rob missed everything besides half ass leg kicks. Till threw 1,2s around 2 or 3 times and opened him up late. What did Rob do is my question?

He threw more strikes. He landed more strikes. He got more takedowns. He got more GnP
When Till landed, they did more damage PER STRIKE, but considering he was less aggressive, had less octagon control, took more shots, got taken down several times, etc... how in the flying fuck does anyone score that for him?
And then there is the age old argument of "what if the fight kept going?" Till clearly wasn't getting any better or any fresher.
