After three rounds of non-stop action at The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 24 Finale, Joseph Benavidez edged out Henry Cejudo on the judges’ scorecards, earning the split decision victory over the Olympic gold medalist.
In round one, however, Cejudo was deducted a point after he inadvertently nailed Benavidez below the belt on two occasions (see it again here). It was decision Cejudo obviously didn’t think was warranted and ultimately cost him the fight.
"Do I think it’s fair? I’ve seen people get hit in the balls, gouged in the eyes and rarely do you see points get take away," said Henry during the post-fight presser (video replay here).
