Evans-Rampage UFC 114

[YoungTRK484]

30-28. Can't believe Rashad is gonna end up winning round 3. GD it Rampage!!!!

[Luke]

Rampage

another fighter who cant go three rounds without gassing

[triathlete]

29-28 Rashad or 29-29 draw

30-27 is a completely bullshit score

[Luke]

Yet another reason for no more 3 round fights lol

[YoungTRK484]

Judges hate 10-10 rounds. Not sure how you could score Round 2 differently to be honest.

Rampage was about 1 or 2 clean strikes in round 3 from Dean stopping it. He was in there watching CLOSELY.

Agreed.

Why the fuck can't I get 2 more rounds of that?

29-28 Rashad or 29-29 draw

not mad at all . I should have lost 5 units on NOG eariler as it was I lost 1.05 on this fight

Won .5 on NOG ,have a 1 unit parlay going with nog in it and one other fighter lost 1.05 on Rampage


So went 1-1 lost .55 units but have 1 unit pending that could win so not too bad

Couldn't agree more.

Those 7 minute miles Rampage was running on UFC: Primetime don't seem too impressive anymore.

Ultimately, the absence of 10-10 and 10-8 rounds has a purpose. The system is designed to avoid draws.

Personally, I'd call that fight about 29.5-27.5 for Evans.

that fight and the NOG fight both fights would have been great if they could be 5 rounds. 3 rounds is just too short. First round is a feeler round so you really only have 2 rounds

[SPX]

It's official. We suck.

[YoungTRK484]

I'm confident Rua will beat Evans at about -170.

i had it 29-28 Evans. I never give 10-10 rounds either but sometimes give 10-8 rounds

[Svino]

Man, I couldn't disagree more about 5 vs. 3 round fights. I don't think any fight should be scheduled for 5 rounds from the start. Boring 5 round fights will kill the sport.

On the other hand, some sort of system with "overtime" rounds in the fight is really close might work.

I'm confident Rua will beat Evans at about -170.

It'll be higher than that imo.

I was hoping Rampage won because Shogun stands a better chance against Rampage imo

Of the 3, I'm assuming you gave Round 3 to Rampage?

WHAT?

Shogun is going to murder Rashad. All he had on Rampage was no ring rust and a speed advantage, things he won't have over Shogun.

3 rounds is simply not enough time for evenly matched top fighters to decide a winner. You will see the light eventually.
