GDT: UFC 275: Teixeira vs. Prochazka

[CDJ]

I don’t think people understand the scoring criteria if they think this is a robbery. I could see 48-47 Santos, 48-47 Valentina, and a loose argument for 49-46 Valentina and none of those would be “robberies”

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Sevchenko didn’t win this fight.
Feel bad for Santos.

Santos shoulda did something when she had control on top.

She ate all the damage

I know that their are different ways of judging fights.

i like Valentina .. saw here a 3-2 santos.

i guess the first is the question ?
do you agree with 48-47 fav Valentina ? or more ?

can you explain ? honestly ... i am not irronical at all.
tks mate

The better fighter won. Sure, you can nitpick and find a way to justify Santos winning. But outside of a couple takedowns and gaining top position, she did absolutely nothing. Couldn't mount any offense or threaten a submission outside of a brief moment where she had the back, but even then, nothing was close.

I know people hate the saying but it's true...to be the champ, you gotta beat the champ.

 

[MotorMaster]

1,2 and 3 Santos IMO but whatever.

She are a couple of headbutts, that she did. I would even say that those headbutts were intentional. But whatever, it not the first time and the last time we will see someone losing despite winning a fight.

 

[MMC]

1-2 Santos 3-5 Shev for me

 

[BozoTheClown]

1,2 and 3 Santos IMO but whatever.

4 and 5 would have been different if not for those headbutts.

I don’t know how you can say either of those headbutts were intentional lol

The modern rules for scoring prioritize effective striking, effective grappling (looking for subs), and damage over control time and octagon control. Santos had a lot of control time and did go for subs here and there and that’s why she won a couple of rounds imo but Shevchenko clearly had superior striking in rounds where Santos had control time but didn’t really present much of a sub threat, and thus I personally have it 48-47 Valentina and would sort of understand 49-46. It’s certainly not a robbery

I mean you see his username right?

 

[Avs_19]

I wouldn’t have hated 48-47 for either fighter. The decision is fine.

I think it was the 2nd round, maybe 3rd, where Santos was on top but Shevchenko threatened with a gogoplata and a few strikes when she was able. I respect the value of the takedown and top control, but if you don't do anything with it, it doesn't mean much. The standup game was clearly in favor of the champ, so I don't see how this decsion is somehow a problem.

49-46 seemed extreme but I'll have to watch again. Regardless, the right person is wearing the belt imo.

 

[CDJ]

I have Jiri by 1st round KO

If it hits the ground Glover is probably gonna f*** him up though

R2 was Valentina's sub attempt. She also landed more shots despite being on her back for most of the round. That's why I'd give it to her.

The sub attempts in R1 and R3 are what gave those rounds to Santos IMO.

R4 and especially R5 were Valentina's IMO.

Name checks out if you think they were intentional.

 

[pistolpete11]

1 judge had it like me. 2, 4, 5 for Valentina.

1 judge had it 1, 2, 3 for Santos.

1 judge had 1, 2, 4, 5 or Valentina.


I don't really see R1 for Valentina, but hey.

[CDJ]

Jiri trying to roll out of these is insane

What a round

 

[h2]

That first round was amazing wow

 

[pistolpete11]

Wow.

Good ending by Jiri, but still think I give it to Glover.

 

[dss97]

All Teixeira the first 4:50

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Has Jiri missed a single strike this round??

 

[CDJ]

Glover is a DOG

I got it 19-19

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Both gassed this is amazing

 

[CDJ]

Nvm I said 19-19 before those elbows

20-18 Glover
