What's the most dominant round by a fighter ever? ( No KO/ Subs )

I was just watching a video of Topuria progessively put on a beating on Emmet and saw the score cards for the fight were:

Judge R1 R2 R3 R4 R5 Total
Eric Colón 9-10 Emmett 10-9 Topuria 10-9 Topuria 10-8 Topuria 10-9 Topuria 49-45 Topuria
Sal D’Amato 10-9 Topuria 10-9 Topuria 10-9 Topuria 10-8 Topuria 10-9 Topuria 50-44 Topuria
Chris Lee 10-9 Topuria 10-9 Topuria 10-8 Topuria 10-7 Topuria 10-9 Topuria 50-42 Topuria

Emmet is a beast, don't get me wrong, but Topuria outclassed him beyond convincingly with 10-7 R4 being the most crushing round, it got me wondering what was the most imbalanced round where a fighter completely dominated the opponent on the score cards without taking them out?

I did some searching and found Steven Nguyen vs. Mohammad Yahya, Round 1, Nguyen dropped Yahya 5 times in the round which is kinda crazy in the UFC, but this was only scored 10-8 I believe, with the following stats:

Stat Steven Nguyen Mohammad Yahya
Knockdowns 5 0
Significant strikes 59 of 112 33 of 86
Sig. strike accuracy 52% 38%
Head sig. strikes 47 of 98 22 of 69
Body sig. strikes 2 of 2 9 of 13
Leg sig. strikes 10 of 12 2 of 4

I guess, my question is, was there ever a 10-5 round or, visually, a round where 1 fighter absolutely crushed the other technically? I am open to seeing grappling domination as well.

Tom Aspinall predicts Ciryl Gane will beat Alex Pereira via decision.

I don't know what to say about this. Alex already had more power than most heavy weights at middleweight. One of them gets knocked out.

Gane is a big boy. Alex is just precise. He has power that will quite clearly translate. The question in this fight is if Alex’s footwork can keep up or cut off Gane’s lateral footwork and who is gonna win the leg kicks battle.

Gane has to stay lateral, check, and get the fuck out the way while darting in and out.

Alex's entire style is cutting off space in the ring, stalking. Should be a great fight regardless IMO

Dricus du Plessis on Khamzat Chimaev's weight cut: “The weight cut excuse is ridiculous. 12 pounds in 24 hours? Those are rookie numbers… I definitely cut more than that. Blaming a bad weight cut is like saying, 'I lost the fight because I wasn't fit.'”

Has there been any other gym that dominated an entire era of MMA like AKA in the 2010s?

I know places like American Top Team are currently doing quite well, but I don't think a gym has ever really dominated an era quite like American Kickboxing Academy in the 2010s.

Khabib, DC, Cain & Luke held undisputed gold at one point or another in the period - Cain & Luke held them within months of each other, and Khabib & DC held them simultaneously - and they had future champs and top contenders flying in to train with them regularly like Islam, Leon and Pavlovich.

Chute Boxe had Wanderlei & Shogun when they were PRIDE champs, they even had Anderson Silva for a while, but I can't think of any others.

Interested to hear your thoughts.
