Ultimate Fighting Championship has seen its fair share of main events end in controversy, not because of the promoter or the fighters inside the octagon. Judging in mixed martial arts has been a consistent enough issue to where the top names in the sport like Dana White and UFC Welterweight Champion Tyron Woodley are calling them out.
The latest mishap took place at “UFC 209” where a judge scored the final round in favor of Woodley, which would not have been an issue had be not scored it 10-8.
UFC commentator Joe Rogan sits cage side for all the action and is one of the more open-minded personalities in the business. When Rogan wants to solve a problem in MMA, it usually means it needs to be solved. Rogan explained his stance on the scoring issues below:
Open scoring announced at the end of each round is a possibility to think about. It would add drama if we knew a fighter needed to finish.
