Jon jones beat Dominick Reyes

Okay i just created the title to get your attention. I think it was a close fight that could have gone either way. Giving a slight edge to Jones is fair though. I think calling this fight a huge robbery and that Reyes beat Jones is wrong. I will give the reasons why people say this.

1. People don't like Jones and want to see him lose.

2. The new unified rules where damage (striking/take down) had been in place for 3-4 years and that was how most people scored the fight. The problem is the fight happened in Texas where they never certified the new rules and were still judging by the old rules where octagon control, aggression and forward movement were valued equally with striking and take downs.

Yes Reyes out struck Jon Jones the first 3 rounds and Jones only out struck Reyes the last 2 rounds. The problem is that was all Reyes did the first 3 rounds. It's especially the 3rd round thats a problem.

He diden't land any take downs, never rocked or stunned Jones and diden't do any visible damage to him. All he had going was out striking him and it wasen't by that much. Jones was blocking or rolling with the punches and striking back. The problem for Reyes is that Jones had the octagon control and he had the forward pressure and looked in control. Reyes was back peddling when Jones moved forward. When the striking is relatively close they usually give the decision to the Fighter who is more aggressive or has octagon control by the old rules.

The same happened in the Khabib v Tibeau fight.

So could you say Reyes won yeah for sure, but i also think it's fair to give it to Jones
