    Never claimed it to be, just a ridiculous stat for a 12 round fight..

    I thought Roman did the more effective work and won by a couple of rounds. It was close but a definite win for Gonzalez in my eyes

      I wanted Berto to win and scored it for him in the Ortiz/Berto I fight but that didn't make the fight any less meaningful and special to me, sometimes you need to just separate the whole "who won" crap and just appreciate the actual combat in the ring, nevermind the results. Fans who can't do that imo have a harder time actually enjoying fights and I think that's kinda sad.
      you scored ortiz-berto for berto? is that even possible. he was completely dominated aside from the 2 knockdowns he scored while getting kd'd twice himself

        Rungvisa should have been disqualified after 3 headbutts, or at least had a point deduction for every round roman was bleeding and off his game distracted . Was the worst decision iv'e ever seen! .

          None of those headbutts were intentional, if anything they are on Roman for coming in when Rungvisai has his head low. And damage afterwards? That's free game, just because a cut may be caused by a headbutt doesn't mean the opponent isn't going to target the wound. LMAO. It's a FIGHT!!

            They were intentional, otherwise he wouldn't have been deducted! And the way he shoots his head in, how could you say they weren't intentional? Clearly there were other factors affecting the way this fight played out, as marcianos record was surely going to be beaten. And certain people didn't want that happening
