MMA Junkie’s 2021 Robbery of the Year: Rory MacDonald vs. Gleison Tibau

BAD MMA News — Fri, 07 Jan 2022 18:29:30 +0000

If there’s one fight from 2021 that had people absolutely outraged at the outcome, it’s Rory MacDonald vs. Gleison Tibau . Having already clinched his playoff spot in the PFL’s welterweight division, former Bellator champion MacDonald (22-8-1) was a heavy favorite when he was matched up with fellow UFC veteran Tibau in the main event of 2021 PFL 5 in June. Tibau (37-15) is undoubtedly a tough fighter that many opponents have had a hard time looking good against in the past. He even gave former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov one of his toughest tests when the two squared off in 2012. But MacDonald appeared to be a step ahead in all three rounds of his fight against Tibau – at least he thought so.
