How Guida won that fight is beyond me. Maybe he won the third because he actually passed to half guard and managed to stay there for 30 seconds and land some shoulder strikes but the first two rounds were clearly for Hioki. Even in the judging criteria. Effective striking? Hioki hands down. I don't think Guida landed any significant strikes the first two rounds. Aggression? Hioki also. Watch the fight again after the first round Hioki was stalking Guida while Guida danced around on the outside. Hioki was also 1000X more aggressive on the ground. Guida basically laid there an threw his legs up spastically to make it seem that he's keeping busy.
