Nick Ring Defies Logic
deliberationroom.com
When Nick Ring and Riki Fukuda fought to a decision, most fans were making a quick bathroom run or to grab another drink, as it was pretty clear who won the fight.
As we heard the words, "The winner by unanimous decision..." we all knew Fukuda's name was coming. But then Bruce Buffer uttered Ring's name across the microphone.
In MMA, we are used to horrible judging decisions and this, at first glance, probably would've been looked at as a case of a wrestler fighting to win on points instead of looking for a finish.
But when you look at the flight metric scores and see Ring failed to land a single takedown and was out-struck by Fukuda in every round, you have another black eye for MMA judging.
