I can’t believe Banuelos landed 10 strikes.

It was an awful fight, and even my friend who was watching MMA for the second time ever could tell that it was Banuelos’s fault. Not much you can do really if the other guy is unwilling to engage (see: Silva vs. Leites)

No way were all of Torres' strikes significant.
And doesn’t Rocha get credit for passing to North-South?
It depends on their criteria. Some people look at north-south as it’s own position while others view it as a side control variation.

Forest Franklin 2nd round,
I don’t know why there needs to be a fight metric on that fight in general. But, I don’t see how you can even argue that round for Franklin. Forrest was better on the feet and grappled on him for a bit. I thought Franklins corner were giving him false hope for telling him he won….Any arguments to the contrary?
I really thought that Franklin would take it.
But Griffin clearly took the first two rounds. I don’t see how anyone could think differently.
