Weak 10-8s brah. She wasn't Jones in the 4th and 5th against Gus, or Lawler in the 5th against Condit.
She throws 1 significant strike out of 5, and the other 4 are weak even for a 115 pound woman.
Its moot here, but if those 10-8s decided the fight, it would be pretty weak.
10-8s are justifiable for either insane damage inflicted by one fighter (think Glover vs. Maldonado or Gray vs. Edgar I) or lopsided offense that favors one fighter in my opinion. That's why you could have Rountree never look like he was ever in danger of being stopped but Sanchez still notches up the 10-8.
The question is did Claudia do enough in round 4 to avoid losing the round 10-8 since Joanna was definitely far more active and picking her apart.
In a lot of ways it's subjective because there are fights we've seen where really lopsided rounds do not get a 10-8. But I think you can definitely make the argument that that one round- round 4 might have been a 10-8 given the lopsided nature of Joanna's offense in that round.
