No typo basically tow judges had Roop winning one 30-27 te other 29-28 but the point deduction dropped it to 29-27 and 28-28 so with one judge scoring it 29-27 (29-28 w/o the deduction) for Garcia makes it draw

Quite a night of night of upset. The Pettis and Palaszewski surprised me but nothing prepared me for seeing Bowles and Torres dominated in the same night. Man, what shockers!
Also, this is the first time I’m kinda glad I had Direct TV. I just couldn’t bare to see Lil’ Evil go out like this again. He’s a great ambassador to the sport and a class act. I hope he now retires and begins to pass his knowledge off. It would be a fitting continuation of his legacy.
Torres getting bloodied and choked
had my jaw dropped open! I was thinking how cool Nugent’s “Stranglehold” was for an entrance song when he came out, and lo and behold, he pulled out the stranglehold on Miguel. Jens was really emotional and he pretty much did retire.
Hadoken!!
Blew that division up
