Oh God, pop it, pop it!

Zhang looking gassed. Gotta give credit to Joanna, she's doing a hell of a job executing her gameplan and eating some big shots.

UFC scoring is straight up shit. I mean, if Magny didn't get a 10-8 in the second round of his fight, it must be basically impossible to get...and not that anyone really wants to see it, but can you even have a draw -do they even ever score a 9-9 in even rounds?
 
I think the next few years for Joanna will look like the last few years for Frankie Edgar

always a top contender but won’t reclaim a belt

there were a few shots Zhang landed clean on Joanna that you could feel the impact. I thought Joanna had a broken jaw at one point

Wasn’t the first Woodley v Thompson fight a draw?
 
the issue with UFC scoring is 10-8s are wildly subjective and inconsistent

Draws should probably happen more often in MMA but it’s just difficult with the scoring system

I think Zhang won 3-2 (all 10-9 rounds) but nobody was getting robbed in that one either way


fuck my body isn’t ready for this main event
