In a rare show of transparency, a Texas judge who scored the UFC 265 preliminary card bout between Rafael Fiziev and Bobby Green defended his work online.
Judge JJ Ferraro, who awarded Fiziev a 30-27 win in this past Saturday’s bout, specifically focused on the fight’s third round in which he gave Fiziev a 10-9 score. The other two judges, veteran referees Sal D’Amato and Chris Lee, scored the round 10-9 for Green.
Check out Ferraro’s post.
According to Ferraro, Fiziev was landing the more impactful strikes and was thus doing a better job of trying to end the fight early in the third round.
