I am completely fine with it being a Jones win. It wasn't like it was a clear cut win for Reyes, because it wasn't. It was a hell of a fight and I look forward to seeing the rematch.

Are you kidding me? The whole "you can't win the belt on a split" USED to be a rule in the UFC, but they stopped doing that almost a decade ago. You want to explain where that rule was in the Demitrious Johnson vs Henry Cejudo fight? Yeah, it didn't exist because Demitrious Johnson wasn't making them any money despite them constantly trying to promote him as the "GOAT". That's literally the THIRD time Jon Jones should have lost by decision, but he never will because the whole decision process is rigged towards who is the most MARKETABLE and makes the UFC the most $$$. The fight game is the dirtiest sport of them all, and if you think they're just going to leave millions of dollars of potential revenue up to who "fairly won" you are extremely naive.
