When I watch it, I will let you know. Not shocked by anything I read, except I am really surprised that Lawler beat Rory. Kind of suprised about Koscheck, but he is aging, so not completely shocking.

Sounds like Hendricks won, and judging is a big part of why I am losing interest in MMA. I don't like how they score fights anyway, and then they don't do it consistently even by their own stupid scoring system. Also steroids and tiny midget fighters, and I only care occasionally anymore. This was a fight I was interested in, but I was out of town.

Exactly. Sure, Hendricks won but I've seen 10 worse decision this year. Edgar-Bendo II , Gil-Bendo, and Jones-Gus were all worse . Most people had Edgar-Bendo II 49-46 for Edgar and Dana didn't say a word about that fight. No idea why the media , fans, and Dana are going all stupid about this decision.

^^ yeah, I expected to be way more one sided from everything I read. I like Hendricks, and I would have given him the fight 3 rds to 2, but it wasn't completely unjustifiable. I actually thought Bendo won the Melendez fight and I scored Jones/Gus for Jones. Grappling is more subjective, but with a mostly standup affair like we had here, I don't think it was too bad.

yeah it wasn't that bad. Its just the best anyone has ever done against GSP so it was overblown.

I think this is a huge part of it. Ala Shogun/Machida 1.
