Gian Villante Questions Run of Split Decisions
Villante recently appeared at an event with Seeds of Change. There, he told MMAJunkie.com that he doesn’t understand what judges are looking for:
“I want to put people to sleep, but if they’re not going to fight me, and they’re going to run the other way, it’s hard to put people out. I’m chasing like that, and they stop and throw two punches and I’m running – I don’t know how they judge these fights.”
Villante is set to clash with Ed Herman on Oct. 27 at UFC Moncton. It’ll be Villante’s 14th UFC appearance. In the main event of UFC Moncton, Anthony Smith will take on Volkan Oezdemir.
