When I heard 49-46 I said to myself "That's Reyes" but then I immediately remembered the 17,398 stupid scores I've heard before.

I thought "how could anyone have 4 rounds?"

Haha same here. I heard 49-46 and thought to myself, "weird that they gave Reyes a 4th round".

Gotta give it to Reyes, I would be beyond pissed right now. That dude is showing a freaking ton of class right now.

Yeah, 49-46 would have been wrong either way, but I feel like it's more wrong for Jones. I'd have to watch round 3 again to decide who won that one. I was leaning Reyes at the time, but thought Jones had a chance to take it.

That may have been the first time I've seen Reyes fight. Very impressive.

Ya round 3 is the only round up for debate. The judge who scored it 49-46 should never judge again. But from watching it live, I didnt think it was a blow away round for Reyes like rounds 1 and 2 were, but I thought it was clear he won the round.

Watch when the scorecards come out, the 49-46 guy is gonna have Jon 1-2-3-4and Reyes 5

Media scores 13 for Reyes, 6 for Jones - all 48-47.

LOL 49-46 Jones. Just shows how incompetent some judges are. How in the hell are you going to give 4 rounds to Jones?!

Losing the bit of respect I had towards this organization.

championship rounds matter, and Jones seemed more fresh and had more pressure. Did the lil things to secure the win.

Its a been annoying now though, hes taking the GSP route on the safe fights. I feel like he had the chance to finish it, but he goes back and stalls and pressures. Even though Jones in his career has every impressive knockout/finishes you can think of, its pretty underwhelming to go to this.

Rounds 1-3 are scored before the championship rounds happen. So they don't actually matter in that sense.

I had it 48-47 Jones, super close fight. Jones arguably has lost two in a row, and the decline is real, or roids played a much bigger factor than people would like to admit

People continue to be upset by this, but close rounds and close fights always, always go to the champion in the UFC.

Off course the 4-1 judge should be fired immediately.

Tell that to BJ Penn. And Mighty Mouse more recently.

I'd forgive a 48-47 to Jones (personally i had it going the other way 48-47 with Reyes taking the first three and Jones the last two, but i can at least see how round 3 could go to Jones possibly) but who in their right mind is scoring it 49-46.

Dupp · Post #60 » by **Dupp** » Sun Feb 9, 2020 11:53 am

Think everyone thinks the same 48-47 could have gone either way but that 49 - 46 score was terrible.

Also See jones credit his take downs for winning the fight. They really didn’t eventuate into anything the whole fight.
