No way that was a split. Each round was close, but not hard to score.

That easily could have been for either guy. Only round 1 was clear for Landu. The other 2 rounds could have honestly gone either way.

Split makes no sense. Clear rd 1 for Landu, clear rd 2 for Bilharinho. Rd 3 was closer, but Landu actually buckled Bilharinho for a scond with a hard shot in the first half of a rd in which he proceeds to rack up a few mins of grappling control. After that he lands better than Bilharinho (admittedly on the backfoot, but whatever). 29-28 Landu
