Lackluster ppv

The cerrone fight was fun

If I just scored the fight on how I saw it I would have given it to Edgar but when I saw the stats I knew benson would win

I would have called it 3-2 henderson. A couple of rounds were very close, but Henderson's stats were way better. No problem with him winning. Wonder if we will see Edgar qqing again.

And the cerrone fight was fuckin awesome

The thing with Edgar is that is fighting style is all based on points, and every fight is controversial. Change it up.

Hope Cerrone gets Pettis then a title shot if he wins. I know he's fought Bendo and Diaz before but I'd love to see him get a title shot.

Also - i thought Edgar won rounds 2,4,5 and possibly 3. Was really surprised Bendo won, but I'd rather see him fight than edgar so i'm glad he held the belt, much more entertaining fighter, IMO

I had Hendo winning 1 and 4 for sure. I had Edgar winning 2 for sure.

After that, rounds 3 and 5 were lackluster and could have gone either way.

Cerrone/Guillard fight was fun to watch.

reading that all 3 judges gave Edgar rounds 2 and 5 and Benson rounds 1. It was rounds 3 and 4 that they didn't see eye to eye on.

I can buy that, rounds 3, 4, and 5 were close. I agree with the final decision, but I understand why those 3 rounds are the ones everyone is "questioning".

Since most of the fight was standing the fight statistics proves that Hendo won, but since MMA is not scored on the total fight (like Pride used to be) but scored by rounds, I can see both sides of this fight.

I thought Edgar won rounds 2-5.

UFC on Fox 5 is going to be sick - Diaz/Bendo, Gustafsson/Rua, and Penn/McDonald.

That is tight. It's kind of irritating that they are putting better cards on Fox for free than they are showing in some pay per views but still bad ass.

When it comes to PPV/Free cards all we can do is think of how the matchups will go. Any fight could be epic or a dud we just don't know how they will pan out. I think it's pure coincidence that free cards turn out better than PPV's sometimes. I won't complain about that but I do when I shell out $55 and it's a dud LOL!

The free cards are stacked because there are so many more potential viewers they want to give the card the best chance of having great fights.

If UFC 151 were on Fox i probably wouldn't watch and just DVR cause there's only 1 fight that I want to see.
