Khabib won on judges cards 30-25, 30-25, and 30-24.

Has there ever been a fight that was more one sided that went to a decision?
 
There were probably lots back in the day. But, the scoring was different. You had to kill a guy to get a 10-8.

Off topic... But, I love this strike.

I think the worst one was something that had even one 30-23 card in it. I'll find it quickly.. wait

EDIT:
Forrest Petz vs. Sammy Morgan
Scorecards: 30-26, 30-23, 30-27

So they had one 30-23 card but on average the Khabib v Barbosa was more lopsided. There are many 5 round fights but on average they aren't as lopsided. I think this indeed was the most lopsided fight p4p in UFC history.

And we have to remember this 30-23 score came before the rule change where 10-8 rounds are more common.

The record is Rich Franklin beating David Loiseau 50-42.

That will never be topped, if you are beating someone 50-41, the ref has gone blind and your opponent is more lasagna than man.
 
If only they had the New scoring during the Abel Trujillo and MJ fights. Those would have yielded the same.
 
Gotta remember that the 30-23

Yeah that's the most lopsided beatdown but R4R (Round for round) Khabib beats it since by

That's just crazy, did Loiseau get a second, third, fourth and fifth wind for the remaining rounds to not be finished immediately in them? Gotta watch that fight
 
The new unified rules had not been adopted for this event, gents.
That scorecard may have been ever worse with the new unified rules
 
It's times like these where I really question the corners of fighters. The ole "fight another day" mentality is basically non existent in the presence of the just bleed era. Corners just don't protect their fighters well being. Edson was clearly well out of that fight. Why his corner didn't just wave it off between rounds is almost disgraceful on their part. I don't even want to give edson kudos for surviving it cause it just perpetuates the problem further. But he clearly did not belong in the cage with Khabib, both mentally and physically.
 
Starnes v. Quarry.

Starnes threw no offense all fight.
 
On the scorecard... YES. But the beatdown was one of the worst. Barboza didn't quit and took it like a man too.

Haven't states picked-and-choosed from the new rules? I recall a lot of them implemented instant replay but nothing else. I'm presuming Nevada might have done the same.
