The numbers are deceptive here. McGee did really well here, and FAR better trhan I thought he would (like, if I knew he would do this well, I would not have double-booked Anderson on this event). McGee had some control and wearing down work going for him. These are typically seen in the high-level fighters here, where they will wear someone down for a bit then finish them. Anderson is Anderson and refused to be worn down that much, but Court was having some success. I am impressed with his future now since he has more potential than i though.
