How does the judge who scored it a draw find some way to give Diaz a 10-8 round, but not McGegor a 10-8 round when he knocked Diaz down twice in one round?

Also, LOL at Diaz cussing when he lost that decision. He made more money by losing that decision and getting a third fight than he made his whole career pre McGregor

10-8 rds are probably the most random/subjective aspect of MMA judging.

If you asked me what constitutes a 10-8 rd I'd just shrug and say "Kicking the guys ass?" Who knows...

Agree w/ you though.

The refs name is Glenn Trowbridge.....Google him.....You`ll see he`s a very controversial ref.

They're meant to be very rare. I've given 3 in the last 4 years. 2 of those 3 times, the fighter didn't answer the bell for the next round and retired on the stool, so highly warranted.

new rules imply that it's based on duration, dominance, and damage. If 2 of the 3 come into play, it should be considered. If all 3, it should be a given.

Even with rules and guidelines, it still seems to just come down to this basic assessment...

"Was the guy close to being finished from getting his ass kicked?"

Don't think I've ever seen a 10-8 from just totally outclassing a guy like CM did to Diaz in rd 1, you only get it if you take the guy to the brink.

You can see his name for yourself OP......Google his name....The guy is a problem.

Kind of I guess, but you can easily "come close to being finished" without getting your ass kicked, hence the duration and dominance stand point.

That's fine, but if anyone was taken to the brink it was Diaz. Yeah Conor was gassed in the 3rd, but he never got knocked down or beat to hell though

Well, for starters, you don't think you did anything in the forefront of these post? If someone disagrees with you, or post the truth to your misinformation, you go on the name calling rebuttal (pussy boy, idiot, clown), while
I've yet to call you anything but weird, and who wouldn't. I'm not attacking you, nor did I start any of the above threads, I merely corrected you with facts, and you went on the defensive to hate me, which is also crazy by the way, to hate another person on a forum. I may dislike a few in this World, but I don't hate anyone, but H8rs H8, so hate on I guess...

Let's count how many times you've called posters names for no other reason but to correct your misinformational post. That's your only rebuttal, well that and memes with poster's names.

Go disrespect THERX some more by talking about another forum......You weren`t missed when you left bro.

LMAO... you are a 2014 member, dont get carried away cause you have posted 100 pics per day for 1 year man... and Im actually one of the few that dont get annoyed by your posts, unless they are like this one, bashing/crying/being a dick. Or flooding the incubus thread that actually does you a favor by tracking your +EV season.

You have the emotional intelligence of a cucumber. Sadly.
