Sat, Feb 8 / 10:00 PM EST Toyota Center, Houston United States. Light Heavyweight Title Bout. Dominick Reyes Round. Jon Jones vs Dominick Reyes ends in a close decision win. Dominick Reyes looked impressive throughout the five rounds of the fight. He connected early in the first round and maintained the same position until after the third round, where Jones took advantage of his in-ring experience.

THE scorecard for Jon Jones’ controversial win over Dominick Reyes has been revealed – with one judge’s scoring branded “insane”.

MMA legend Jones retained his light-heavyweight belt via unanimous decision in Houston, Texas.

UFC LIVE: LATEST REACTION TO JONES’ CONTROVERSIAL WIN

The triumph means he now holds the record for most championship wins in UFC.

But the result was not without question – especially given the scoring of one of the judges.

The majority of fight fans watching the bout had Reyes winning at least two of the first three rounds.

Add to that the fact he dropped Jones in the first and it seemed like he was on top.

That was reflected accurately in the scoring, but it is the scores record by judge Joe Solis that put some fans into a rage.

He had the fight 49-46 in favour of Jones, while Marcos Rosales and Chris Lee, the other two judges, scored it much closer.

They both had it 48-47 in favour of Jones.

Solis’ marks were labelled “insane” by Joe Rogan and UFC supremo Dana White thought Jones had lost the fight.

Rogan, a commentator and popular podcast host, blasted: “I can’t argue about this enough. I can’t get angry enough.

‘JUDGING IS INSANE’

“I’ve done it so many times. For anyone to think that was 4-1 Jon Jones, that person’s insane.

“They’re insane. Dominick Reyes put on a hell of a fight tonight. And to disrespect that performance by that kind of judging is insane.”

White also cast doubts on the scoring as he claimed he thought Reyes was well ahead coming into the fifth.

He told TSN: “I had it 3-1 Reyes going into the fifth.

“I do [think Reyes won]. Joe Silva, our old matchmaker, had it a draw. And some of our other guys had Jones winning the fight.

“This thing was all over the map. But at the end of the day, the only thing that matters is none of us are judges. So it doesn’t matter how we had it.”

FAN FURY

And fans on social media were equally scathing in their view of Solis’ scoring.

One said: “The last four rounds to Jones… stay off the drugs kids.”

Another wrote: “Put me in the octagon with the 49-46 judge.”

UFC's Jon Jones chokes a fan unconscious but then immediately revives him

HOUSTON – UFC president Dana White thought there would be a new light heavyweight champion when he entered the octagon after the UFC 247 main event.

In the aftermath of Jon Jones’ unanimous decision win over Dominick Reyes on Saturday, debate has raged about who won the fight. Reyes (12-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) made Jones (26-1 MMA, 20-1 UFC) seem more human than ever before, and a large contingency of the combat sports world thought the belt would change hands.

White admitted he was part of that group. Following UFC 247, the UFC boss said he gave Reyes the first three rounds and the final two to Jones, but the judges saw it differently, all giving the champion the nod for a successful title defense.

“The scoring was all over the map,” White said. “… Going into the last round, I had Dominick Reyes 3-1 going to the last round. My kids are terrorizing me that the fix is in, ‘How could this happen, Dad?, Reyes won that fight,’ and the list goes on and on of people who are reaching out to me. So it’s not like there’s this landslide of people saying it was a robbery or whatever. People have it all over the place.

“But the reality is, who gives a sh*t? We’re not judges. None of us are judges, the judges called the fight, and that’s that.”

Who

Reyes, for his part, was certain he deserved to win.

“I know I won that fight,” Reyes said. “I was in there. I don’t need to watch the replay.”

Crackstreams

UFC 247, which took place at Toyota Center and aired on pay-per-view, marked the second consecutive competitive, and somewhat controversial, fight for Jones. He edged Thiago Santos by split decision at UFC 239 in July, and after that there was a belief the belt should’ve changed hands.

White praised Jones for finding a way to consistently get his hand raised, though, and said he’s not completely ruling out the possibility of booking a rematch in the future.

The UFC boss pointed out both Jones and Reyes were physically banged up after the contest, and he won’t be calling them about a next fight anytime soon.
