I also was pulling for Nelson, but he was outclassed by Dos Santos.
Whether it was from his lack of cardio or from the punishment he took, Nelson was winded after the first round. He was moving forward the entire fight; however, by the 3rd round he was plodding forward. His takedown attempts were weak and his strikes were labored. At one point in the third round he could barely stand up after a failed takedown attempt.
Styles make fights, Nelson was unable to score a takedown and JDS was able to pick him apart standing.
