It just needs to be said. How long after the UFC merges with the WWE do we find out there are shenanigans going on with the judges scoring just like boxing?
Let's see

Controversial 10-8 score for the 5th round making the championship fight a majority draw and the Mexican champion retains her belt - check
Shevchenko repeatedly hit Grasso with her jab re-opening her cut and blooding her face for the first 3.5 minutes of the 5th, clearly winning the round at that point. Grasso reverses a takedown attempt and get's Shevchenko's back for control the final 1.5 minutes of the round. You want to put more weight on the 1.5 minutes of ground control and give the round to Grasso 10-9, fine. (Forget that Shevchenko had Grasso's back for the majority of round 3 and nobody scored it 10-8) But, there is no reality in any universe that the 5th is a 10-8 round.
I had it 3-1 going into the 5th, as did 2/3 of the judges. The only way Grasso could win was with a finish.
