Def. agree that ground control; transitions; and GnP need to be worth more in the judge's eyes.
Yes I know, DAMAGE is most important, and it should be.
But I've had fights where the damage was almost identical --- striking stats were nearly identical ---- could have been a split decision either way in that regard -----
except I was also 4/8 on takedowns with 5+ minutes of control time over 3 rounds, and opponent had no TDs or control time, only a couple successful escapes/stand-ups.
I end up losing 29/28 on all 3 cards
Yea Yea don't leave it to the judges
But it really seems that takedowns & control time have very little impact on the scoring, would love to see some 10/8 grappling rounds or other ideas come to fruition as well
