Andre Fili defeats Cub Swanson via split decision.
Pretty clear 2-1 Cub Swanson based on the second and third round, no idea how Fili thinks he won that and was okay to coast. Never gets old seeing guys like Fili cope hoping for a split decision with their hands up at the end. #UFC303
10-9 Swanson RD3 29-28 Fili This fight comes down to how the judges scored round 2 as round 1 was clear for Fili. Likely a split decision incoming. #UFC303
