Can someone explain to me how Kenny Florian won ?

Florian was closer to winning Round 1 than Nunes was to winning Round 2 and 3. I was quite shocked how Florian got dropped though at the end of Round 1 and almost at the end of Round 3.

I thought Nunes clearly won rd 1, and Florian clearly won rd 2, and I gave Florian the 3rd also, but thought maybe Nunes would get it for stunning Florian with seconds left

Florian took over the standup in Round 3, although he get did semi-dropped in the 3rd.

Kenny Won.

Explanation: Kenny won two rounds and Nunes won one round. All rounds were scored 10 to 9. Is there really that much difficulty understanding that Kenny won rounds two and three? Or do you think Nunes won one of the last two rounds?

I think the difficulty stems from Florian being dropped at the end of round 1 and sort of dropped at the end of round 3. I think those moments stick out in people's heads. The reality was Florian took over the fight in the 2nd round. He was landing straight punches on Nunes and pretty much not getting hit. Yes, Florian got taken down once, but he negated it and got a takedown of his own and was more successful on top
