Jon Jones vs Daniel Cormier was a robbery

[No Mas]

From memory 2-3 were clear DC, 1 was closeish but JJ was busier and the champ, 4th DC faded bad and was clear Jones, and 5 was closer than 4th but still Jones. Went 48-47 JJ in real time.

Yeah it was close, JJ would have probably won had their performances been inversed since he is like the Canelo of decisions in MMA.

It's true that DC fading towards the end, biased commentary, and UFC fans not being the sharpest tools in the shed made it look like a dominant Jones victory though.

What a great bump

JBJ lost every fight that went to decision, according to JBJ deniers

 

[Reyes Lost]

nope cormier lost the first and the third was a toss up

Maybe a rematch could show who the better fighter is... Oh wait.

It would have been interesting to see a rematch in which Jones wasn't juiced out of his mind

When it comes to the first fight, Jones won the last 2 rounds without question, but had the fight been only 3 rounds long, it would have been a bitch to score...
I have Jones winning the first round 10-9, DC the second 10-9, and the third being a draw.

But since JJ dominated the last couple rounds, there's no controversy.

Silly thread.

Jones clearly won every round except round two, which edged somewhat towards DC.

There is a better argument to make that Jones swept him than there is that DC won a decision or that it was a close fight.

I agree with the third being a draw even though dc took the later part of the round after an eyepoke even. I also scored last one draw as well since nothing literally happened yes jon popped back up but he did use the fence. But the big move that pickup was a dc moment imagine if jon did that to him how people would react. 1-2 DC (look at Jon's nose after the 1st) 3draw 4jon 4 draw

still weird how people act like jones dominated DC and the fight wasnt competitive. dude definitely needed his roids to beat DC.

It was a robbery, because Jones was yet again juiced to the gills.

Should be overturned to either No Contest, or Victory for DC
