so does every fighter for the rest of the card just focus on holding tight to their opponent now?

i find it disgusting that marquez lost that.

the only way 2 of the judges scored it for allesio is because they scored those takedowns as something amazing, when in reality, it resulted in nothing. No damage was inflicted with that brief top control.

Im just taking in that this is a factor in game planning.
A fighter can have a gameplan all set... but when watching the previous fights before he has to fight... he might actually have to change his gameplan because he knows 2 of the 3 judges LOVE wrestling. The other judge that rightfully scored the 30-27 prefers damage over anything.

I'm happy Alessio got the nod cos Marquez missed weight by 4 pounds.
 
Awful decision, Alessio's takedowns literally led to nothing except him getting reversed or nearly submitted. It was embarrassing

Agree 100%
 
It was a close fight but Marquez landed harder shots and backed up the other guy a lot. Also like you said the takedowns didn't do anything.
 
Didn't you know?: "Octagon Controlling" > [Striking + Grappling effectiveness]
 
Going to decision should count as a loss. 3 in a row and you're fired. Learn to do your job

No guarantee you get these same 3 judges.
 
I saw on twitter that Adalaid Byrd is a judge tonight. The lady that screwed GGG in the Canelo fight and Nam Phan in the Leanard Garcia fight.
Edit: she just scored The Caceras vs Bravo fight in favor of Bravo. She’s out of her mind. Calling it now, she’s going to fuck up another fight tonight.
