Hey. I don’t like his style and I was pissed off and frustrated with him too. But not wanting to reward him for that style, and being honest about scoring a fight are two different things.

Wonderboy won that fucking fight!

I don't get the fan "outrage"

Till landed the harder shots and controlled the octagon better. He also outlanded Wonderboy most rounds.

Till won that fight. Get over it homos

I don’t think there’s any “outrage”. I think a lot of people who felt like Till won are lettIng the perception that Till “wanted to engage more” than Wonderboy influence how they view the fight. I also think a lot of people were happy that Wonderboy got punished by the judges for his “point” fighting style and don’t care who really won.

I’m saying that by objective judging standards, I think Wonderboy was the clear winner.

I didn’t watch it but I’ve got Till winning 49-46. He dominated rounds 1,2,4, and 5. Clear victory imo.

And what are those objective judging standards?

Wonderboy didn't land the harder shots and he didn't land more of them.

Anyone got the judge's score cards?
I wanted Wonderboy but I thought Darren had it. Don't ask me which rounds but I thought Wonder had two rounds only. Till was the aggressor. and had "octagon control" throughout the 5 rounds. He got the only knock down (Wonderboy's wasn't really a knock/takedown), his shots were far more impressive.

That's bc you're an idiot
Stats are deceiving. If one looked at your ratings to post count ratio they might incorrectly assume you're a valuable contributor to the site.

Just the other day you were bragging to me that you're so much cooler cuz you have 1 more chromosome than all of us. I'm starting to think you might be retarded.

Just read an article that had Big John explaining the criteria. Octagon or cage control is only to be awarded when striking and grappling are completely even. Wasnt a robbery but WB won that fight. Home field advantage for till. And im saying this as a fan of till.

For the first three rounds I was cheering, yelling, and spitting cheetos all over my laptop. I was super into the fight because I thought that we were building to some sort of payoff. For the last two rounds I just sat there quietly eating cheetos, and thinking about patching up the relationship with my dad.

In the first round I was thinking, “are you fucking kidding me?” Fat forwarded to decision and completely forgot who won an hour later

After rewatching the fight, I had it a draw honestly.

However, if you HAD to pick a winner, it'd be Till.

the 4th and 5th round were the most pivotal.

1 and 3 went to WB, I had the 2nd for Till.

The 4th was so damn close I had to put down as even.

The 5th obviously went to Till.

BJM did say though, even though he thought Thompson won, that when things are pretty much even you have to give the more aggressive fighter the round, so again, if I had to pick a winner in round 4 and therefore of the fight, it'd be Till.

He said Aggression should be awarded first though.

Given how even round 4 was, I'd say you'd have to give it to Till if you were to pick a winner.

2, 4 and 5.

48-47.

Damn close fight though.
