It was another frustrating mixed martial arts main event to score at UFC 106. Forrest Griffin got a split decision win over Tito Ortiz 29-28, 30-27 and 28-29. Ortiz scored more takedowns and did some solid damage on the ground, including opening a nice cut over Griffin’s left eye. Griffin threw more shots throughout the fight and was really effective landing heavily in the final two minutes of the fight. Before that, how many headshots did he actually land?
A look at the photo gallery provided by Getty Images shows an awful lot of blocked shots. Getty uploaded 11 photos of Griffin throwing a kick or punch at Ortiz’ head. Tito is shown blocking 10 of them. This is only a small sample but it certainly proves the fight is worth another look.
UFC president Dana White said the 30-27 for Griffin was ridiculous…
