I wanted Hendricks to win, but title fights you have to have a clear win via decision to take the belt. GSP took rounds 3 and 5 and possibly round 2. The scoring system isn't "whole fight"...no matter how much Hendricks pounded Gsp in rounds 1 and 4, that doesn't mean he wins the whole fight. Hendricks should have clearly won 3 rounds or finished the fight if he really wanted the belt. Winning 2 and "maybe" a third will never cut it for a title fight, same as Jones/Gus. A jab and a "big rig bomb" are both worth 1 point, they're both a significant strike.

 

Neither fight should have been as "surprising" to people as it was. UFC. Is not "whole fight" scoring, so judging based on how beat up someone looks is idiocy.

 

Watch a different league if you don't like the scoring system.

I unfortunately was unable to watch, but from what Ive read in other places out there the consensus seems to agree that GSP should have lost. Ive read words like "controversial decision" in more than one place....

some peoples face swells up more than others does not mean they took more the beating well I lost by a large margin due to their skin / complexion. it was a really close fight and I'm completely shocked that hundred did as well as he did..

There is no discussion than GSP won two round, but the first one is too GSP too, Hendricks did hurt GSP but never tried to finish him, he take him down at the last mn but that's not enough to win the fight. Even when GSP was hurt he was the agressor and never lose octogon control, Hendrick run away a lot during this fight, to sing between round don't help too.

Hendricks got fucked over, big time.

 

The same shit that happened to Gus to a lesser extent.

 

Ridiculous.

 

Gus vs Jones was closer than GSP vs Hendricks imo. I'm a Jones hater (til he cuts the Jesus Christ crap). I knew it would be a split decision in GSP's favor at the end of the fight and I'm glad he kept the title $$$$$ but I think Hendricks won the fight. If you take all aspects of MMA scoring (UFC's 10 point system) than you can probably make a legitimate case for GSP. I thought he won rounds 1 & 5. I'm not sure the fight metric statistics though, on who landing more total strikes or whatever, and despite the scar tissue Rafi from The League still did a lot more damage.

LOL! I'm so glad you pointed out about Rafi...my wife and I have said that from the first time we saw Hendricks fight, he looks and fights exactly like I would imagine Rafi does. His big left hand should be nicknamed "Rafibomb!"
