UFC 204: Bisping vs. Henderson 2

1,2,5 hendo imo although 5 was close... i think hendo could have played it a little better in the last 2 mins and won but he certainly landed the harder strikes and took the first half of the round

Sick that Hendo was very close to become the champion in round 1

Going to be pretty funny when any of Jacare Gegard Weidman or Rock hold are favored over the champ by like 3 to 1. Even funnier if Bisping miraculously retains again

Hendo fought stupid, he had to figh like he fought in round 5. He was waiting the KO and let Bisping control the fight.

Hendo doesnt have the tank to fight like that for 5 rounds, the only reason he did it is because he conserved his energy

BTW

I scored it
10-8
9-9
9-10
9-10
10-10 ?

Id have to watch the last round carefully it was pretty even, but I had it tied to the 4th round and in retrospect I think thats the correct scores, 1st was a near finish, easy 10-8 round 2 was dominated by Bisping but he loses a point to a knockdown, the other 2 were clear Bisping rounds the last one is harder to judge.

Maybe not the whole fight but he was just waiting and Bisping was scoring points like a mofo.

9-9?

I think it was:

10 - 8
9 - 10 (Bisping controlled all the round, Hendo just had one knockdown but I dont think is enough to give him the round)
9 - 10
9 - 10
10 - 9

It should have been a draw imo

Knockdowns discount 1 point from a fighter

lol you're confusing MMA with boxing.

I scored it

10-8
10-9
9-10
9-10
9-10

Rounds 2 & 5 were really close and could have gone either way. Though I'm a bit bias for Hendo

The fact that Bisping almost lost to Hendo in a 5 round decision is just embarrassing. I can't believe Bisping is champ lol. It's worse than when Serra was champ imo.

I scored it the same way.

Hendo just needed to let his hands go more in R5 instead of trying for that TD.

Oh well.

Still think Bisping is more skilled than Alvarez?

I think a lot of WW's would have beaten Bisping tonight. Woodley, Wonderboy, Rory. Fuck maybe even Cerrone lol.

There wasn't much going for it on hendo's part, should've thought of that first. He's retiring and a win won't really matter if he's going to absolutely try his best, he was going for an easy win and when he saw bisping wasn't going out with one punch no more, I felt he kinda faded in rounds 4 and 5. He could've just ran around after seeing bisping survive the 2nd one and he was gassing already and booked the win, question in his mind must've been "for what?" I felt he wanted to go out with a bang or just let bisping have the belt. in fariness to bisping he was in super good condition all througout the fight so i give him that.

yeah afaik MMA doesnt have that direct unbendable rule of knockdown - 1 point however I think that round should be scored as a draw so make it 9-9 or 10-10 doesnt matter.




Could MMA judges get a grip? not a single one scored the first round 10-8 even after the memo of the new rules for scoring encourages judges to do so.



My dream job is being a combat sports judge, you watch fights for free, you dont need to know what the fuck you are doing and you get paid, pretty neat.

BTW OSP looked like absolute shit, 2 minute gas tank

yeah OSP was done in round 2, like waiting the KO

Crazy that Hendo was too close to make history

I enjoyed the event and actually liked the matchup, but that was atrocious for a title fight. I'm happy for Bisping because he has put in his dues and I kind of like him nowadays. He will walk from the sport with a win over Anderson, a win over Rockhold, revenging his terrible Henderson ko loss, and as a defending champion. What the books won't show is that his revenge came in a close fight against a 46 year old, his win over Anderson when he was 41, and his win over Rockhold a 1/20 lucky shot. Seriously crazy how this unfolded for him to really cement his time in mma as an incredible career.

Bisping is the GOAT post-USADA.

this is exactly what I meant before... once an idiot always an idiot when it comes to fighting, Bisping knows all he has to do is avoid the right and he wins, Hendo isnt even throwing anything else at him, yet he throws that stupid rusian jab without tucking his chin behind the left shoulder and doesnt bring the hand back to his chin nor leave the hand hangin to stiff-arm him... its as if he was trying his hardest to get KOd, at least he didnt circle to Hendos right all the time like he did last time.

Yeah after round one I thought "No way Bisping survives" . But anyway it was ev+ betting on Hendo at +195 since it should be a draw, the fight was close and he almost got the finish.
