Saw the ridiculous cut on Struve, and decided I NEEDED to see this fight.

Yeah the Wandy fight should have atleast been a split.

Caol Uno was robbed though.

Cain's exposed now too he'd get KO'd in one round via Cerwan or Lesnar that 1st round droppage had him 1 phase away from sleep luckily he had shoot auto-pilot haha !

I've never seen the logic in "that should have been a split decision". That's like, "I can see two judges thinking Franklin won... but three?!"

I had it 29-28 Wanderlei, but it was an incredibly close fight. I also think I may have been the only person in the world to give Wanderlei the first round, as I felt like he had the only substantial offense of the round- the takedown, followed by a pretty sustained period of time in a dominant position. Franklin only got an advantageous position courtesy of Wanderlei trying to pull guard for the guillotine, and he was unable to maintain any dominant position.

I have to go back and watch everything else save for a couple fights.

It's actually more like, "I can see Franklin winning two of the rounds...but all 3?!"

I can understand that point of view. But "Unanimous Decision" refers to the fact that all three judges awarded the fight to Franklin, and doesn't take their score into account in the slightest.

According to this article at MMAJunkie.com, it was 29-28 on all three cards in favor of Franklin. It's not the score I came up with, but it's a score I understand.

I was just saying that's how most people view the decisions.

I think we can all agree that we have all thought this before "I don't know what the fuck judges were basing points scored on."

I would also like to add Bruce Buffer is the gawd, no one is even close to fucking with him.

Clay is the fucking man. Dude was clapping after he got his ass beat in the first round and came back in the second. Dude is the definition of an animal.

I had Diego in the end but I still wanted Almedia to win. Dude is a fucking jackal

UFC 100!

Beastly Swagger · Post by **Beastly Swagger** » Fri Jul 10, 2009 4:47 pm

Mir
GSP
Hendo

SuperFeen · Post by **SuperFeen** » Fri Jul 10, 2009 5:25 pm

Hyped for this. Want Mir to win but as long as Brock stays far away from the ground I think he'll take it.

I'm gonna say Alves 2nd rnd tko, Hendo decision, Akiyama 2nd rnd sub, and Jon Jones 1st rnd spinning back elbow

ChewbaccaUncircumcised · Fri Jul 10, 2009 10:01 pm

super cysed for ufc 100.

manwhore · Post by **manwhore** » Fri Jul 10, 2009 10:22 pm

fuck yeah, can't wait!

and as green as lesnar is, i still anticipate his fight because i have no idea what the hell he will do. he has that unpredictability right now. like that bullrush on herring! i mean wtf.

maybe mir will change that but for now he is a big draw for that reason.

Chuck Earns Cheese · Post by **Chuck Earns Cheese** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 12:05 am

Mir
Alves
Hendo
Sexyama

Beastly Swagger · Post by **Beastly Swagger** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 2:25 pm

hell yeah, mir would catch lesnar's head in the craziest submission if he bullrushed him. plus, i don't think lesnar is that stupid.

thiago better destroy gsp. we got a 7 blunt bet on the gsp thiago match and i got my 7 on alvez.

Tweak Da Leak · Post by **Tweak Da Leak** » Sat Jul 11, 2009 3:14 pm

man I would love that frenchy canadien bastard gsp to get pounded out more brutally then he did bj penn but alas I don't see alves being able to do it. gsp is a diff fighter after serra dominated his ass.
