At UFC Liverpool, Darren Till was awarded the unanimous decision victory over Stephen ‘Wonderboy’ Thompson. It was a controversial call, but was it the right one? In this episode of the podcast, we’ll explain why a scorecard for either fighter is justifiable, but only if the process by which it is obtained is done the right way. This is the Monday Morning Analyst with Luke Thomas.

GREAT video…..thank you
You missed the big leg kick in round 4… after 25 seconds, huge bruise. WB had all his weight down also, it took more and the accumulation from the leg kicks in round 3 as well.
3-2 till
You can't steal close close rounds in somebody's back yard, especially when your backing up and least of all in liverpool. It's just not how it works.
Big Wonderboy fan, but at the end of the day — it's his own fault that he lost.
This is MIXED Martial Arts. Being great at Kickboxing is good, and if you can win some fights that way, congrats.
But at the end of the day you should be able to use Wrestling, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Judo, etc as well. If you ignore 5+ disciplines for 25 minutes and then lose, I can't defend you.
Explain Nicolas Dalby vs Till then. it was just a year ago? meet Tills aggression with aggression from any top 5 and some top 10 welters and it a recipe for disaster for Till. He can't take real heat! Dalby proved that.
Till went harder in sparring than in a real fight
Till won the fight , he came to fight wonderboy came to point fight
This fight was very similar to Machida vs Shogun. Which was top notch but pre-jones era
The wall analogy is terrible. Also, people are only pointing out the fact Till outstruck Wonderboy because numerous fighters claimed the opposite.
