Honestly, who had shogun winning that fight?

[barcafan]

Im a little biased since i put 50 bucks on him, but serious shogun won that fight.

Bad decision...I had Lyoto winning 2 rounds. However...thats what you get when you lay back and let a fight to a decision when you're over confident you won.

 

[hopewas]

there is no doubt he won..the judges in mma are getting just as crooked as in boxing..the california athletic commission is crooked..shogun won at least 4 rounds...if not all

 

[hopewas]

even fight metric which calculates the number of strikes that landed has shogun winning

The good thing is this may push the case for a scoring revamp.

 

[hopewas]

judges are either being told to score a certain way in my opinion and being crooked (2 csac officials have been fired for illegal activity/scandal).. or they have judges scoring it as a boxing match instead of an mma match and excluding the kicks. it's f*****g retarded. i've always rooted for shogun and i get pissed when he gets robbed of a deserved victory....just makes me angry for him

. or they have judges scoring it as a boxing match instead of an mma match and excluding the kicks. it's f****ing retarded.

No thats EXACTLY what they do. Keith Kizer posts on the UG now and explained this.

Pretty bad eh?

Maybe the UFC should spend more time fighting for a new scoring system instead of pushing so hard for it to be legal in NY?

Are you serious? thats horrible thats not mma!

Steve mazzagatti is a douche too.

Are you serious? thats horrible thats not mma!.

there is no "MMA refs" and there is no "Boxing refs." They are supposed to be interchangeable.

That will change in due time.
