The co-main event at UFC 227 was as close as fights come and it almost ended before it even began. Henry Cejudo rolled his ankle very early in the first round against Demetrious Johnson.
After a back and forth battle, the judges’ scorecards were read and Bruce Buffer declared a new champion via split decision. I had the fight 48-47 for the former champion and one of the greatest fighters in the history of the sport, “Mighty Mouse.”
But you don’t want to hear my opinion – when a fight is as close as this one was, I like to get the media’s perspective on the bout.
