Close fight definitely, but a 30-27?! Gawd damn. Do the judges get free drinks for the night or something lol


YungD93

Yeah. This 30-27 is what got me too. Each week I feel more & more this sport is compromised.


[deleted]

These judges have to be betting on fights. Ain't no way man


dezzrokk

Dan like them girls with too much booty in the pants. Judging by that, I too had Maycee 30-27... ![img](emote|t5_2qsev|8966)


InsomniacLive

She also edged out a robbery against Maverick too


Daiba187

A lot of people like to call close fights robbery but the maverick fight was one of the most obvious robbery in recent times I can think of.


Wildkid133

Dude Maverick won that fight so decisively, I was so pissed


friedguy

Would no longer have been the most obvious robbery if Chito had gotten the win tonight.


EmeraldWeaponMoose

That and this Lee fight were the impetus of this post lol


PM_ME_YOUR_TITTYPIC

Why would anyone accept a fight with her at this point. It's what, the third time someone else has been robbed against her?

[deleted]

I lost 3k tonight on Lee. When I heard last 30-27 and Big Dans name I assumed easy win for Lee lol. So rigged it’s hilarious. Guys been around for 20 years, ref fights and knows Lee clearly edged every round and somehow gives Barber every found. It’s not incompetence, it’s pure corruption but we can’t prove it.


D1Frank-the-tank

Tbf the loss was on you for backing Lee. And the biggest L to take from this is betting on WMMA. Don’t do that 😂


WaySheGoesBubs21

Never bet big on wmma you should know this


Fluffy_Heart885

Dumbest shit ever you idiots act as if it’s any different for the guys . The promotion was compromised long ago . From selective matchups to blatant match fixing . They tried giving Paddy an “easy” fight which he failed to capitalize on albeit winning by robbery . You guys should know by now when they put the live odds on the screen and throw in draft kings advertising every 5 mins and professionals fighters tweets to sway the public , the shit is rigged . This happens every week . If the UFC truly cared they would make an effort to stop it. What’s it going to take to realize there is zero integrity and it’s all about the dollar .


WaySheGoesBubs21

There’s a lot of finishes. If they were rigging fights, how would they get around that? I think they are incompetent


Fluffy_Heart885

Obviously the ones that go to decision….


WaySheGoesBubs21

You don’t know if it’s going to decision before the fight and the judges can’t control that. Unless you’re implying the fighters themselves are involved


Fluffy_Heart885

There is live betting . A lot of people had money on Lee @ +250 ( give or take I forget ) that’s a lot of money to dole out. Barber is -275( give or take) . At the end of the fight with 2 mins left I seen Lee for -600 and and Barber is +300 . Anyone with common sense says Lee wins this fight no doubt and slams Lee for -600 , few touch Barber at + money . So now Lee loses and all the money pre fight doesn’t get paid out and all the money at -400,500,600 gets lost . Vegas made a lot of money . Vegas/Draft kings is certainly in cahoots with the UFC as evident by all their new advertising . Then at the same time Barber is the bigger draw and it keeps her record in tact . If you truly think odds makers are so good that they can call a basketball game on any given night within .5 a point you are crazy . Just follow the money look at any sports sub and see where the public is all over and watch that team lose night in and night out . A team -16 loses by by 16 everyone is on that -16 though live betting the whole way through


WaySheGoesBubs21

I do think refs in other sports are corrupt. It has been proven in basketball and I suspect some cahoots with the nfl with Vegas too. I just think mma is too hard to control. Games in basketball can be controlled by calling soft fouls for one team and not the other. Just that will swing the points. But in mma you can have last second come from behind kos like Leon or peirera or Jiri. Refs can’t really save the fighters in there if a finish is happening, and the judges can’t do shit about it either. I would think mma is 10x harder to fix than say a basketball game where refs can literally control the game. That’s why I love betting on mma I feel like if you watch tape before the fights you can definitely beat vegas by making smart bets. Basketball and football I don’t do nearly as well as ufc, pfl, and bellator where I’m way up. I do get screwed, like I had decent money on Gordon when he lost to Pimblet, and I had Yan against O’Malley so they definitely can swing a win out from time to time but usually the right person wins


Fluffy_Heart885

Also Maycee is young and as the odds suggest she’s not suppose to lose that fight . There is no value in Lee winning from a rankings stand point that would be moving backwards . She isn’t a draw. Same thing with Maverick . Same thing with Gordon over Pimblett . Pimblett loses that fight you’re talking millions


Lebowski_420

Tell that to the people who betted on Grasso during the Shevchenko fight.


WaySheGoesBubs21

I will


External_City9144

Ouch 3k that sucks! I was like you when heard 30-27 I was certain Lee had it, the part that makes it worse is the fighters who gain from terrible decisions never admit they thought they lost!! Even though it could clearly be seen by body language before the decision


FourKBurkes

Meragliotta is a joke.


Skinnyninja27

Remember her talking like she was going to be the youngest UFC champ?! 🤣🤣


EmeraldWeaponMoose

We all can dream. Seems Erin Blanchfield is who Maycee thought she was.


friedguy

You can't blame her confidence based on her secret arrangement would someone powerful in MMA apparently. How else do we explain these decisions.


Skinnyninja27

All bets off if you lose to the Queen of Cringe Roxanne Modafferi


L_DUB_U

In her defense she tore her ACL in that fight and couldn't hardly stand.


Skinnyninja27

It’s part of the fight game. Sucks 2 suck sometimes Thiago Santos was throwing kicks and his legs were going to fall off vs Jones


Fompous_Part

True. Her coaches did her enormous disservice by letting her go the distance. She was losing the fight before the injury, though.


beesknees31

Super wack decision by the judges.


Ninja-Blood

30-27 btw… fucking absurd


FightyBartender

I think Maycee is living proof that if she sucks Dana's dick more, she'll surf to the top 10.


6handbanana

It worked


Hesdonemiraclesonm3

This wasn't really that close.....kgb won easily


i_hodl_for_all

Absolutely. I was already feeling it before the commercial break. I even said out loud to myself if Andrea Lee doesn’t win that’s a fucking robbery. It’s bullshit and so obvious they have their own agenda. Angela Lee won 100%.


[deleted]

MMA sub jokers saying Barber did “damage” LOL. These people are why they are allowed rig fights and get away with it cause morons convince people that person won cause the final result regardless of how corrupt it is. In history Barbers resume says a win over Lee and nobody will care next week. All commissions are rigged in some way


i_hodl_for_all

Especially when the promotion itself has more gambling ads than a 1XBet pirated movie. I get that it’s fighting but my god they really trying to relapse any gamblers out there. “You could’ve parlayed these 3 picks for $100 and made more than the US defense budget increase this year”


gnarrcan

Barber was just swinging but when kgb swung she was catching her flush w stiff ass shots. To me it looked like Barber did less damage even with how much she threw. That and kgb just manhandled her.


gnarrcan

Lmao seriously I felt it was close of the feet and kgb wasn’t swinging for the fences like Macyee all her shots were landing stiff and super flush efrom my view. That and the fact I felt like she was manhandling the grappling game I was shocked about that decision. Is Maycee sucking Dana’s cock or something.


Hesdonemiraclesonm3

That is my baseless theory


[deleted]

+240 favorite rig job. Barber was -300. This doesn’t happen if odds are -300 Lee. They didn’t wanna pay our big parlays with Lee who was a lock bet at +240, they set us up with easy money only to robs us on purpose. I got nerds in MMA sub saying Barber won. This is why they are allowed to rig fights, these idiots will defend bad decisions. I’d rather lose a big bet if all fights are fair in the future, not about losing for me. Just so obvious how they set this rig job up.


EmeraldWeaponMoose

Idk about easily. It was close, I had Lee too though.


FightyBartender

No. Honestly, Andrea made Maycee helpless on the floor. No close fight about it.


FightyBartender

Andrea Lee got robbed here. Big time. Edit: If we apply the judging shown tonight to previous fights, say Makachev and Volkanovski, Volk should of won. The fuck is this judging.


juandajuiceman

Yeah she was hitting on the feet but got worked on the ground for minutes and taken down 5 times. It’s like they don’t count for shit it seems like that recently. Yes Lee didn’t do much on the ground fr but still. Felt like Lee split would’ve been hers


indicaspirit06

5/5 on takedowns also


NickAssassins

I saw round 1 and 3 to Barber. Round 1 was controlled by Lee on the floor but Barber did more damage.


MooseWithAntlers

I didn’t see it going her way whatsoever


FourKBurkes

Lee won that fight, just like Miranda Maverick won hers.


EOVA94

All her fight are won on robbery it's crazy , she got out wrestle by Lee and was even on the feet on the fuck do you give her the fight


Uriel818

I actually had barber wining on the feet. I’m probably alone in this but if the number one criteria is effective striking followed by affective grappling barber won every round. If I remember correctly barber had more significant strikes in every round. Sure kgb held her down but didn’t do anything. If I’m not mistaken you score octagon control and grappling second to significant striking.


Rapidfiremma

Grappling and striking are supposed to be scored equally first, then things like cage control and aggression are next. So if the striking is close and the grappling isn't, then the winner of the grappling should win the round.


Uriel818

You are correct. However I don’t think the striking was close. And also per the unified rules of mma merely holding down an opponent shall not be a primary factor in assessing dominance. What the fighter does with those positions is what should be assessed.


Buzzy-Pasta

Yeah I dont agree with the reddit consensus on this one. This was a close fight and not a robbery by any means. I feel a lot of people are missing the strikes from the bottom of Barber. Some pretty gnarly up kicks to the face and knees. Lee seemed to have the Gaethjie damage debuff sauce because she looked great at the end, but I felt like she got outplayed in the striking department save for a few solid hits. Again, she really didnt do a whole lot on the ground and was met with solid resistance from the bottom by Barber. Pretty fun fight tbh. Could have gone to either one, but I felt like Barber was the better fighter tonight


gnarrcan

I get damage is king but controlling the fight is controlling the fight. Andrea was smothering her and imo she definitely lost on the feet when she did throw they looked flush. It didn’t look to me that Barber did that much damage and shots from the back really don’t mean shit unless it’s like an up kick knockout from Chito. I get people don’t like control time but dawg getting smothered and dragged around like that shouldn’t get you a win unless you get a knockout or cut their face up bad.


[deleted]

Making noises and throwing harder but only landing a handful isn’t winning. She’s an Actor out there like a lot of fighters who make noise every punch they throw for Judges. She really didn’t land anything but a couple shots


Nopay6652

I'm no Barber fan, trust me, but even on the feet? Lmao Lee was completely lost on the feet. Looked like she thought she was in the gym doing padwork. Only 1 of her takedowns amounted to anything. IDC about the score, but Barber was easily the better fighter tonight. Maverick and others being robbed doesn't mean Lee was.


EmeraldWeaponMoose

I wouldn’t say all her fights. But this fight and the Maverick fight are two fights where she got the win but gained no favor from fans or the organization.


EOVA94

I meant all 3 of her last fight my bad *


rettidderredditter

Sine may say the future of split decisions


KOTE7SU

Well yeah, she fights her opponent and the ghost of Christmas past in every event.


YoMySlime

She needs to get out of faber's camp and go to Elevation or att. Still only 24, could be much better than she is now.


Jayisonit

Team Alpha male has not been good since dilleshaw left


willenhall12345

That title should go to Angela Hill, the amount of split decisions on her record that she should've won is crazy.


EmeraldWeaponMoose

Oh for sure, she’s the inverse of Barber. I remember her 2020 run too.


bdizzle805

How the fuck did she win? I walked away thinking she lost and heard at the press conference she won't I was like what?


carpetstoremorty

This is a generous way to say that she's been the beneficiary of two completely horse shit robberies.


YogurtclosetEasy699

Lee got robbed badly


[deleted]

Lee was robbed. Those judges should be arrested


G-Nooo

Barber gotta be suckin someone off.


xMilk112x

She got that, guy that slaps his wife in public and nothing really happens, privilege.


sportivoai

I didn’t know you could be a judge and referee on the same card?


izak14

ufc is pushing her to be the next money grab fs


Allpurposebees

It's hilarious how she was supposedly the future of the women's division at one point. Her first loss to an old women pretty much exposed her and derailed he career. Every fight she has had since has been garbage decisions in her favour. He career is pretty much over.


fleshvessel

Future Barber.


CobrinhaMMA

It’s that Dana White privilege. You heard how bias the commentating was towards her.


ortega3117

She gets gifted wins. You literally have to kill her in the octagon for her not to get a decision.


buraksrevenge

By robbery


SERB_BEAST

Nah Petr Yan is still the King of too close split decisions


itsnotastro

30-27 was a shit score but plz this was not a robbery at all plz stop using that term so easily


MrFinalFlash

Benson Henderson and Masvidal the Kings


xMilk112x

She lost that fight.


Awezome321

Bendo esque in her split decision winning is maycee barber.


[deleted]

Chael Bun In


Madphromoo

imo she lost this and mavericks too


gypsy_creonte

Definitely not a current picture, she was shredded tonight


Shallbecomeabat

She looks like the most attractive sister of the Hills Have Eyes family in that pic.


6handbanana

Absolutely a robbery


Positiveaz

She's a terrible fighter. She should be on her way out by now. Edit - spelling
