Takes decision as massive favorite
Ruffy defeated James Llontop via unanimous decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) at UFC 309 on Saturday in New York City.
ANALYSIS
This fight was a mixed bag for Ruffy. He won an easy decision, but as a -1000 favorite, you would have liked to see him earn the stoppage. He landed more than a handful of his trademark power blows which would have put away any mere mortal, but Llontop ate them all and somehow managed to win Round 3 on all three scorecards. Part of that was due to the fact Ruffy appeared visibly exhausted. The power of the Brazilian is legitimate, but Ruffy's secondary skills are questionable, and his cardio appears mediocre. There's most definitely a scenario in which he starts to struggle when tasked with facing better competition.
