Kopylov defeats Tulio by decision despite missing finish opportunities

Roman Kopylov defeated Marco Tulio by unanimous decision with all three judges scoring it 29-28 at UFC 328, bringing his UFC record to 7-5. The post expresses disappointment that Kopylov didn't finish the Brazilian after scoring knockdowns, with the author curious to hear his explanation for not pursuing the finish when it appeared close. The fight followed a familiar pattern for Kopylov of inconsistent performances with many strikes absorbed and lost exchanges, similar to his fights with Curtis and Robocop. Despite showing excellent power and fast, deceptive kicks with good feinting ability, Kopylov struggled to dominate throughout the entire fight, resulting in another nerve-wracking decision victory.
