UFC 247 Post Mortem: Jones-Reyes Rewatch, Joe Soliz Might be the Worst Judge in MMA History, James Krause is a Beast, and more - a podcast by The Athletic

Shaun and Chuck discuss Jon Jones’s controversial victory over Dominick Reyes on Saturday night to retain his Light Heavyweight title and re-examine their scoring of the bout after a rewatch. The guys talk about judge Joe Soliz, who scored the championship fight 49-46 for Jones, and his history of terrible scoring throughout his career, including a number of poor calls at UFC 247 alone. And, the guys talk about what’s next for Dominick Reyes and how this near-victory will shape his future in the UFC.
Plus, the guys go over their UFC 247 picks and recap the rest of an exciting undercard, including Valentina Shevchenko’s continued excellence and who, if anyone, makes sense for her to fight next, Dan Ige’s impressive win over Mirsad Bektic, an entertaining fight between Derrick Lewis and Ilir Latifi, James Krause showing the heart of a true fighter in a questionable loss to Trevon Giles on extremely short notice, Justin Tafa’s early KO of Juan Adams, and more.Save 40% on an annual subscription to The Athletic when you visit http://theathletic.com/MATMLearn more about your ad choices.
