i agree. :td: Matt looked so fucking dejected and mentally broken after that decision.

Yeah, I lost some respect for Bisping tonight with his after fight comments, considering he got beat.
Kro Cop looked terrible.
That fight that ended in the armbar was awesome.
Seriously, what the FUCK were the judges thinking in the Hamill/Bisping fight? Hamill had him beat at least 2 rounds to 1. Correct me if I am wrong but when you go by points to decide a fight, it is the sum of those points that decides the winner. If you add the points that the judges gave the fight, it was 86-85 Hamill [29-28 Bisping, 30-27 Hamill, 29-28 Bisping]. Honestly, the decision for that fight pissed me off. I agree with you guys, what is up with the lowbrow shit from Bisping? Acting as if Hamill did not hurt him in any way during the fight.
The final fight was pretty good. Rampage controlled the tempo of the final rounds. Good show for him. Henderson was good but seemed to have tired out faster than Rampage. Davis with the armbar after getting rocked was impressive. Alexander should be fighting Lidell, not Jardine at the next card.
Cro Cop was definitely not his best this evening. That loss to Gonzaga is still affecting him. He was gun shy and did not want to engage another powerful striker. I also think Cro Cop needs to add to his arsenal. In this fight and also the Eddie Sanchez one I believe, he only kicks with his left. He should mix it up to keep the opponent guessing. Tonight when he was fighting Kongo, he should of delivered fast swift right leg roundhouses under the jabs. Hopefully he gets his mental game back and starts winning again. Cheers to Kongo though for controlling the fight.
It's silly of me to be disappointed in Joe Rogan for not calling out that bullshit decision and instead saying something like "You've got to be happy with your performance tonight" isn't it?
See? SEE? Cro Cop comes out to Duran Duran again, and again Cro Cop gets dominated and loses.
I hate to say it, but maybe Cro Cop needs to go back to Pride or K-1. He was so awful tonight.
Yeah, I didn't get that shit AT ALL. The retard beat him so fucking bad.
Politics...
BTW, lol @ Hamill's post-fight speech. Somebody get this motherfucker some subtitles...
Dude needs a job.
Also, Davis/Taylor was an awesome fight, and Houston Alexander is one baaad man.
After tonight, things need to change for Mirko. He either needs to drop to 205 or he needs to go back to Pride. I don't know if it's just his mental game or what, but he's had nothing to say to the UFC's big heavyweights.
Also, I don't think the Bisping decision was BS. I knew it'd be a split decision after the third round. Hammill clearly won the first round, Bisping eeked out the third, and I think the second round was a toss up. I think Hammill definitely won the first round more than Bisping won either of his, but UFC never scores anything but 9/10 matches, so it doesn't matter.
I will say it was disappointing to hear Bisping talking shit after the fight. I really like Bisping--he's looked good in past fights and always seemed like a nice dude. But tonight he didn't look as good as usual and he came off as an ass.
Totally disagree.
You could eliminate all of the striking that Hamil did and purely judge the fight on aggression, pushing the pace, controlling the octagon, and takedowns and he still wins at the least 2/1 with all three judges IMO.
I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but I've been saying they've been "taking care" of bisping since the eric shafer early stoppage and this sure seems to lend credibility to it.
I'm guessing that bisping could've been killed with his heart ripped out and they would've called it a no-contest.
Overall great show and a ton of fun. Easily worth what I paid for it.
And for some lols...
