How did he not win this fight? Even without the point, I think he should have won. He def won the first 2 rounds IMO and prob lost the 3rd just based on the takedown. I'm so confused. This was even worse than the Hammill/Bisping decision to me.

Re: Varner fight One judge got it right. Peoples was in the middle, surprisingly, though he had it wrong too. But the one judge scored every round for Salorus.
I will admit, Shalorus is a beast. He is like the terminator. I think somebody was scoring the leg kicks very highly. I was surprised how effective they were. They may have been influenced by the Aldo fight. I doubt Varner wants to go through that again.
Bottom line is that Varner outboxed him all three rounds, but got neutralized on the ground in round 3.
29-27.
Keep in mind if for any reason round 2 was given to Shalorus, it was in fact a draw, as Peoples had it. 28-28.
It was not the biggest robbery. But it was not a good call.
Hammil Bisping was worse.
I pictured you as that guy Gaylord in Showboat, passing up taxis to walk because he's broke and playing it off as if it's the doctor's advice. - Clmetal
