A GSP win. Yes he got marked up in the first two rounds but he worked hard in every round. Henricks just didn't work enough. I don't know how Towbridge could score the first round to Henricks because it was clearly a GSP round and the other two judges scored it as such. If Trowbridged scored that first round 10 -9 to GSP as is should have been it would be 48 - 47 from all three judges. Not the best of fights.

I must have seen a different fight.
 
I had Hendricks ahead after the first two rounds but couldn't really call it after that... Had to wait for the judges decision..

Not sure if the Weidman rematch is a great move on Silva's behalf as if he loses again its probably not going to look great on his record.
 
Might have to go back and watch the GSP fight again, I had him winning the first 3 RSS and then maybe GSP winning the last 2, nd then if GSP retires or steps away or whatever is he going to vacate the title, which would mean Hendricks would have to fight again for the title.

As for Silva I think if he loses again to Weidmen he will retire, I don't think it will do heaps of damage to his career or record considering he has been so dominant, can anyone see Weidman being so dominant? I cant .....
 
Who would be next in line to fight against Hendricks for the title should GSP vacate it?

I cant see Weidman being as dominant as Silva has been. RE: retirement, i think your probably right.
 
GSP wont vacate it, app he got some chick pregga's but he want to abort and she doesnt,

so many people that could beat Hendricks obvious one is condit but also Woodley/Story/lombard, I think Diaz could give him a run, Askin(if they ever sign him)
he will never be a long term champ(if he ever is champ)
 
Robbie Lawler is trying to push for a fight against Hendricks....would be a pretty good slugfest I reckon. I'd like to see Condit get another shot, he never gives up, a real warrior.

Geez I wish I could follow MMA without having to put up with Dana White constantly in our faces all the time. He's a fkn douchebag...his ranting after the fight was ridiculous. He got all shitty about GSP retiring, saying no way he'll allow it. One of the reporters at the press conference asked shouldn't you check what the problem is before commenting.

For a guy who's meant to be the president of the UFC he's got a distinct lack of class. You'd never see Demetriou, David Gallop or James Sutherland carry on like this fuckwit.

I'd like to see his good mate Roy Nelson clock him with a swinging overhead right, put him nighty night, and then the Nevada State Athletic Commission give him a 6 month medical suspension.
 
Robbie Lawlor has been fantastic of late and it is great to see, when he first started out fighting i was a big follower and then he seemed to lose his way for a while there...

Would make a good fight i think...
 
he still has to beat GSP(offically) I honestly think GSP wasnt all there, I saw one superman punch, only one of his sneaky duck under take downs(first 5 secs) no spinning side kicks, his takedown attempts were slow, he just seemed in cruise mode, App GSP made around 1.5mil out of that fight
 
I think silva will easily win. He was fucking around before he got knocked out. It looked like he was going to win easily then copped one while fucking around too much.

I didn't think dana was upset at him retiring. He was upset that he said he was just going to take a break. Well you can't just do that and hang onto your belt.

Yep agree with this, he didnt look the same and i think it was in the second and third rounds i thought he was injured, may have just been due to knees and kicks to the legs but he just wasnt moving right...

I think its was just because of the punishment he took.
 
Can't wait to watch it. I couldn't figure out how Bigfoot would win it prior to the bout. Bit surprising Hunt didn't get to Bigfoot's chin after 5 rounds, he's getting old I guess.

You'll have to watch it. Probably the best fight I have seen, was screaming at the TV. Hunt looked like he was going to finish him 2 or 3 times but seemed a little wary of the kicks, reach and takedowns so didn't go in for the kill but really was probably just fatigue. Hunt also survived a savage knee.

Hunts takedowns were a surprise.

Overall I thought Hunt had the win but would have to watch it again.
 
I was lucky enough to score a front row ticket the night before the event and am very glad I went, was a amazing event and the crowd in the hunt fight was unbelievable, easily the best HW fight I have seen
 
What a war! I just watched it (had it recorded).... Great fight! So many big shots and so much damage inflicted... As others have said one of the best HW fights in ages...

I thought the decision was a bit rough.. I thought hunt won the fight, it was close but I felt he got the better of the exchanges, especially later in the fight and bigfoots face was a lot more bloodied up come the end of the 5th. The stoppage to consult the doctors I think also played in bigfoots favour as he looked to be in trouble at that stage...

Oh yeah the stoppage for the doc changed the fight. Looked like a stoppage was very close and it gave bigfoot a chance to recover.

I don't agree with the stoppage for the docs. You either stop the fight or keep going. No mid fight check ups to allow someone a rest.
