I don't mind that top fighters "score points" in MMA; I do mind that they are automatically given rds for it though. Control isn't just a matter of looks...tell me who really was in control there. What was more threatening: Maia's guard, or Shields' lol..."GnP".
Tito Ortiz used to control cats from in their guards; Jon Jones controls you from in your guard. GSP has built a championship run on it. What Shields did was not what I describe as "control".
