29-28 Wells on my card @MMADecisions. Could be 30-27. Landed bigger and better in rounds 1 & 2. Round 3 was basically a non-fighting round for both. #UFCVegas86

10-9 Griffin RD3 29-28 Wells Round 1 was close and judges do tend to put more on the last sequence than they should. Likely split coming here. For who? I’ll say Griffin even though I scored it Wells. Based on my experience with the judges of the GREAT NSAC! #UFCVegas86
Griffin led the dance in the third. Enough to win it on my card. But overall I got it 29-28 wells #UFCVegas86 https://t.co/YDuZW7v8sa
Wells thought about a spin, nope. He comes in and eats a clean right! Griffin right hand off the Wells jab. #UFCVegas86
Tentative round 3 so far between Griffin and Wells. Neither man wants to get caught late. #UFCVegas86
20-18 Wells. He won round 2, but it easily could be 19-19 so they both need round 3. #UFCVegas86 @ConsensusScore
10-9 Wells RD2 20-18 Wells His cardio is potentially a liability for the third. Does Max Griffin have enough to throw together some combinations and get the finish he likely needs? Could be 1-1 #UFCVegas86
20-18 Wells. Wild and sloppy, but he's wanging Griffin with the bigger shots. #UFCVegas86
More than likely 2-0 wells #UFCVegas86
Spinning heel kick lands to the body for Wells! BIG SHOTS TRADED!!!! Wells side kick to the body. #UFCVegas86
Griffin reverses, then gets reversed on the fence then gets it again. Elbow for him on the break. Wells jab is landing. Griffin jab and avoids the wide counters. #UFCVegas86
Even with this score I still lean Max Griffin here as a whole for the fight. Wells is going to gas with all the muscle and be liable if we head into the 3rd round. #UFCVegas86 https://t.co/3WNO3tfipo
10-9 Wells. Just a lot of unhinged nonsense out there, but he caught Griffin with some heavy shots along the way. #UFCVegas86
GRIFFIN FIRED BACK AND LANDED TOO! THEY ARE TRADING LIKE RAMS! BIG SWINGS FROM WELLS BUT HE GETS TAKEN DOWN!!!! Round over. #UFCVegas86
Wells just brought through with a huge strike landed. #UFCVegas86
Lots of feinting here. Max looks like he has that right knee locked and loaded for a takedown attempt from Wells.... Wells with another jab. He's not shooting yet. OHHH HE COMES IN, LANDS AND TAKES GRIFFIN DOWN!!!! #UFCVegas86
Wells opens with a wild spins. Back kick to the body, backfist upstairs, just going wild. #UFCVegas86
R1 - Griffin vs. Wells - Wells tries some fancy spinning heel kick to the leg from the rip LMAO Big shots from Wells hit arms. WOW MORE SPINNING ISH FROM WELLS wow! Doesn't land clean but wow. Jab for him. #UFCVegas86
Max Griffin vs Jeremiah Wells up next at #UFCVegas86 Intrigued by this matchup. I feel like Wells market price by the oddsmakers is a bit much as a favorite. The line has went towards Max during the week. As always we shall see. https://t.co/geRQlYietR
BIG right hand for Bogdan but it looks like they clashed in close. No harm no foul tho. BIG SHOTS TRADED AND ZAC MIGHT BE HURT SO HE CLINCHES AND PUTS BOGDAN ON THE FENCE!! Shorts shots being traded in close, Zac with the knee to the body. #UFCVegas86
