No crack and no aspergers. You can look at the stats all you want. I rewatched the fight and looked at round 3 a couple of times. Erceg won round 3. Your take on round 5 is off as well. Erceg was winning the round and got reversed the last minute to minute and a half. You need to watch the fight and stop going by shaky stats. I like Pantoja but he lost. He lost 2,3 and 4. Hometown cooking wins in Brazil.You must be smoking crack or have full blown aspergers. I just pulled up the stats and they back up what I said. You seem to be really hung up on what the commentators (who were terrible) were saying, especially Anik.
I get it, you don't like Pantoja and wanted him to lose, but the only round he clearly lost was 4. He took that round off then dominated Ecreg in round 5.
Let’s stop moving goal posts here, Ercegs own corner thought he lost either 4-1 or 3-2. Bro landed like 3 good elbows in a 25 minute fight and not much else.
Salty ahh dudes
I addressed the corners in the original post. Erceg's corner did a terrible job overall in the fight.
"Bro landed like 3 good elbows in a 25 minute fight."
Great analysis there.
Pantoja didn't have the edge in striking. Damage may be subjective but I hope you aren't trying to make an argument that Erceg landed on a couple of damaging shots. Pantoja was getting picked apart on the feet. Erceg's had a clear advantage striking in this fight and Pantoja was diminished after the 3rd round. He was at least slightly concussed after that round.I thought the decision was correct
Pantoja was the clearly superior grappler, and im pretty sure he had the edge in overall strikes landed
Damage as a criteria imo is too subjective. Guys like the Diaz Brothers bleed like crazy, and Chael beat Anderson Silva tf up for 23 minutes but Silva was hardly even bruised and Chael looked like shit. So it's sort of hard to just say based on aesthetics that Erceg deserved the win for landing a nasty elbow or overhand that split Pantoja up...as he walked through said strike into a takedown and 2+ minutes of grappling dominance
