Thats why stats are retarded when they bring them up. Seeing as they say "significant strikes". That means the glancing blows and light one two's arn't scored.
If this is how judges score, they need to be shot.
Oh that round was close, give it to the Champ... I don't care if it's King Kong, score the round appropriately. If it's close with no significant attacks, ever heard of a 10-10?
Edgar won rounds 2, 4 and 5 IMO, with the 3rd being either 10-10 or 10-9 Edgar due to harder strikes.
Another close fight, either guy could take the split, but again they pick the fighter who most probably wouldn't. Controversy all the bastad time.
I thought it could be a draw, thinking that Bendo outstruck Frankie, but Frankie had more "tangible moments", so at best a draw, otherwise a W for Edgar ...
I like Bendo quite a bit, and Edgar is a great dude. But I'm not a fan of Edgars fighting style.
When Edgar caught Bendo I literally was having flashbacks to his third fight against Maynard.
Like they say, don't let it go to the judges. I think he could have more finishes at 145.
