Nice win by Rampage tonite. Def hard earned. Hendo didnt want that belt bad enough though.
205lb is a crazy division. Cant wait to see shogun beat griffin and see griffin run out of the ring crying again.
Anyhow, Houston is a beast. Im def looking foreward to his next fight.
Bisping looked like ish enven though he won.
What did u guys think?
Damn it. I knew I shouldn't have got on the board this morning. I DVRed and was ready to watch it this morning. I figured nobody would have put the results in a thread title, I was wrong... :(
Rampage was impressive in his ability to "wrestle" with Henderson. I think it really surprised Henderson that he couldn't control rampage on the ground.
The Hamill/Bisping fight was a good one. Hamill has come a long way, much more than just a wrestler now. With some more training/experience...who knows?
Houston looks unstoppable!
A bunch of good fights last night!
The Hendo/Rampage fight was awesome. The way the first round went I thought Hendo all teh way, but was surprised big time by Rampage's ground game. He deserved the win and can't wait until the rematch which will happen soon on American PPV I am sure:D
The Hamill/Bisping I think that was the wrong call. I thought Hamill won that fight. Must be alot of talk about Bisping dropping weight since they mentioned it about 5 times going to the 185.
Houston is just a crazy corn fed dude from Nebraska LOL.
Hamill got screwed. Bisping got it handed to him except later in the 3rd round. He then went on to run his cocksucker about how he is so good yada yada. He got it handed to him--his ass and the match.
I was impressed at how well Rampage wrestled with Henderson. I agree that Dan was probably surprised that he couldn't control Rampage on the ground.
Hamill should have won his fight w/ Bisping. I am not going to get into how dissappointed I am in that decision.
I am a very big Cro-Cop fan, but have been dissappointed with his last two fights. This fight more than his fight with Gonzaga though. Cro-cop was controlling the pace and stalking Kongo the first round. Then the 2nd round started and Kongo switched that around and began to press the action. From there he ruled the ring.

I was irate when they gave the fight to Bisping. He lost that fight and that's all there is to it. I dont know what he had to do to pursuade the judges but there's no way in hell he should have won!!! Hamill got screwed!!!
Damnit I couldn't agree more. When that little bastard start running his mouth after the fight about how matt kept calling him out, that pissed me off more than anything. I can't wait to see his next fight, I hope whoever it is, breaks his face so he can't fight anymore...Quote:

I was confused as well why he didn't take it to the ground, but he still clearly won that fight.Quote:

from a bjj stand point...there was open submissions in almost every fight...Why dont the just go ahead and call it k-1 cause the ground game is a thing of the past anymore

Couture called it when he said Hendo likes to strike and if he does Rampage will win.
Hamil stood up the whole fight.
Also seems as if the fighters that still play the ground game prefer to ground and pound vs submissions.
Youll be ok.Quote:

Hamill in no way lost that fight, it was a gift to Bisping. I think Cecil Peoples was the judge who scored it 30-27 and that is a complete joke. Peoples has been involved in a few controversial decisions and I think it's time that the UFC has a talk with him or have him removed.
Hendo and Rampage fight was awesome, IMO. Of course when they weren't on their feet duking it out, some people were boo'ing like the idiots they were, but you could tell they were very expierenced fighters.
Houston definetly has KO power but I'd like to see him in the ring with a good striker and one who can go the rounds. I'm curious to see what kind of heart the guy has and what is going through his mind when he cannot knock the guy out like he did his past two opponents.

Hamill took him down what 5-6 times during the fight, busted bisping open under both eyes. Hamill deserved the win. Should it have been a 30-27 score? No way it would have been close but still in Hamills favor.
