Dominant win for Song…I could see MAYBE 1 round goes to Gutiérrez but likely 50-45 #UFCVegas83
50-45 Song. Not very eventful, but it was clear who the better fighter was there #UFCVegas83
49-46 Song @MMADecisions. Could easily be 50-45. Maybe a bad argument for 48-47. No argument where Gutierrez wins this fight though. #UFCVegas83
I have it 50-45 Song He should almost certainly get the nod here, but can see a case for Gutierrez getting a round or two on the scorecards.
Song pressing again to start round 5. Gutierrez tries an Imanari roll and now Song is on top in half guard. All bad news for Gutierrez. #UFCVegas83
Song back to walking in on Gutierrez to start round 4. Eats another front kick. Lands a hard 1-2. #UFCVegas83
30-27 Song. He is singing right now with his striking and landed his best flurry in the thrid round. Guiterrez has to get something going heading into the later rounds #UFCVegas83
30-27 Song at this point. Gutierrez needs to pick up his pace.
Eye poke from Song early in round 3. Action stopped. #UFCVegas83
I've got it 19-19. Giving Song round 1 and Gutierrez round 2. Even with the takedown, Gutierrez felt like he landed more and better strikes. #UFCVegas83
Song ready to start again. Gutierrez getting really comfortable in his kicking game. #UFCVegas83
Three Stooges-style eye poke there. #UFCVegas83
Hard eye poke from Gutierrez halts the action in round 2. #UFCVegas83
Gutierrez with a hard front kick in round 2. #UFCVegas83
That front kick might be a problem from Gutierrez if he can work the lower leg kicks in and find his reactions with faints. #UFCVegas83
Song on the front foot early. Gutierrez, unsurprisingly, looking to kick. #UFCVegas83
