@ Saint-loup: The fight was not that close, the first round was close and the last round was close but the rest of the fight Jones was dominating and the judges messed this up giving a split decision, Santos was really struggling to stand properly from the first round but he stood his ground but Jones was always pressing forward.
I respectfully disagree. For me round 1 and 2 were for Santos. Round 5 was the decisive one and could have gone either way.
Jones won because he had more stamina and was always pressuring his opponent but Santos gave the most efficient strikes.
I don't disagree with the final decision but I think it would not have been an outrage had Santos been given the victory.
He was very impressive, Jones was disappointing (wrong game plan probably).
What about that crazy knee from Masvidal ? I mean wtf ! I didn't like his cocky attitude after the knockout but still... wow ! I sure wasn't expecting that, I don't think anyone was.
Nunes also was impressive, she has now beaten every former UFC champ in her division. I don't know much about women mma but it's obvious that she's above the others.
I also really enjoyed the Chiesa fight, definitely my kind of fight. The guy deserves a better rank in his division, it's just a matter of time.
Overall, it was a very good card with very entertaining fights.
