Two Sherdog judges gave Emmett round 3.

[Ryoto Machida]

And only one scored round 4 10-8. The other two thought that beating only constituted a 10-9.

So just when you think that the judging is irredeemably incompetent, be thankful that it's not "Sherdog incompetent".

I did. It was Emmett's best round, and he landed the harder shots while Topuria was just working him with the jab. It certainly wasn't a 10-8 round, no matter what Chris Lee thought.

I also gave the 10-8 to Topuria in R4, that was clear to me.

It was easily Emmets best round so.

Who ever scores fights publicly on forum from their couch should post their physique along with their score

 

[Macaque]

How did Chris Lee have a 10-8 R3?

 

[chinarice]

There is no round Emmett won

The only round Emmett almost won was 1 but Ilia still clearly won

You make it sound like sherdog's the only MMA media outlet that has given out wonky scores.

Because being in shape is a requirement to understand the rules of the sport and judge fights accordingly.

Actually, you know what? Let's do that. Since it's your idea, let's see you go first.

Good idea.

I think if you've watched tons and tons and tons of fights and have more experience than everyone else regarding every possible permutation, there's a good chance you're of a heavier build.

Skinny judges aren't where it's at.

You can't just give guys rounds as charity because you thought they did better than in other parts of the fight lol

Unfortunately that happens all the time, especially if it's the better known commodity coming back and having a "better round".

 

[Big Tuppy Hole]

It was easily Emmets best round so.

But did he win it?

Whoever criticizes an NBA players jump shot on a public forum from their couch should have to post videos of their jump shots along with their criticism.

Yea I can see someone giving him round 3

A blind man ?

Lol at giving a fighter extra credit for not getting beat as bad in a round as he did in a previous round.

What about a picture of there cock?

Round 3 was very competitive, i could see 10-10 or 10-9 either way.

Round four was a clear 10-8, 10-7 is way more justifiable than 10-9.
