Controversial Decision at UFC 310 Sparks Outrage

News summary

The UFC 310 rematch between Ciryl Gane and Alexander Volkov ended in controversy as Gane was awarded a split-decision victory, despite widespread belief that Volkov had outperformed his opponent. Volkov's camp and UFC President Dana White expressed dissatisfaction with the judges' decision, with White openly stating that he thought Volkov won the fight. Volkov and his team criticized the Nevada State Athletic Commission and judge Adelaide Byrd, citing her history of controversial decisions, and Volkov plans to appeal the decision, although the likelihood of overturning such outcomes is low. This defeat halted Volkov's four-fight win streak and left him frustrated as he believed he had landed more strikes and demonstrated superior control during the fight. The decision stirred outrage among fans and pundits, reigniting discussions about the judging process within the sport. Meanwhile, UFC 310 also featured Alexandre Pantoja's title defense and callout of Demetrious Johnson, adding to the event's high stakes.
