UFC lightweight Jared Gordon is taking his controversial loss to Paddy Pimblett in stride, but would like to see some changes made to the judging process. Gordon (19-6 MMA, 7-5 UFC) wound up on the wrong end of a unanimous decision after three rounds with Pimblett in the co-main event of UFC 282. The result sparked the latest debate about MMA judging, as many believed Gordon should have been declared the winner. Some labeled it the worst decision in UFC history. While there have been calls for changes to the MMA judging system, such as utilizing open scoring, or moving away from the 10-point must system adopted from boxing, Gordon thinks it’s more important to focus on the judges themselves.
