Yeah, has to be with the time spent on fitch's back.

The 1st was BJ but the 2nd was close but have to give it to BJ on damage and getting back control.

I think the judges give the second to Fitch because of the last minute or so.

With that right hand and takedown right at the beginning of the 3rd round, I said to myself "that could be the whole fight, right there."

well it all depends on the scoring of round 2 IMO. 1 should be BJ and 3 is clearly all Fitch.

I thought the 3rd was definitely a 10-8.

I don't see that being 10-8. BJ was controlled but I don't know if he did enough damage to warrant a 10-8. I expected Fitch to get the second from 2 judges. surprising.

Even BJ thought he lost the decision.

Nobody getting that title shot, but i doubt the winner would have gotten a shot anytime soon, with GSP and Anderson headed towards fighting.

Rematch for the title once GSP moves up.

I thought that Siver Sotiropoulous was what a 10-8 should be. Where the guy is essentially saved by the bell. Fitch controlled the round completely, but I never feel like his opponent is in danger. I think only 1 judge gave siver a 10-8.

None did, and that should've been without a doubt a 10-8 first round I agree.

Wording on the books:
A round is to be scored as a 10-8 Round when a contestant overwhelmingly dominates by striking or grappling in a round.
And of course I'd never expect the judges to even consider a 10-7, but
A round is to be scored as a 10-7 Round when a contestant totally dominates by striking or grappling in a round.

"Overwhemingly dominates" vs "Totally dominates." Christ, what a stupid, stupid scoring system. If I worked for one of the athletic commissions I would be completely embarrassed.

This describes both round 1 for Siver and round 3 for Fitch

let's see what we get from the press conference...
I can't believe Fitch didn't get the nod!
Siver v. Sot was a 10-8 round that was scored a 10-9. If fitch got that same treatment he would have lost.
I think Fitch was lucky to get the Draw , i dont think he came close to winning round 2.
The Hunt KO was beautiful

Even though 10-8's are way too rare, they're even rarer in a first round. It to me shows judges are taking into account previous rounds before handing out a 10-8 in the second or third to "even up" their score-card when they feel they have the person losing the fight ahead.
