Excellent card and fantastic main event, just imagine if that was on fox last week !

I had it scored as a draw as well, but damn it doesnt matter lol, just glad I saw it :D
 
First 3 were Hendo, 4 and 5 were Shoguns with the 5th being a 10-8, that makes it 47/47 draw.

Amazing fight, incredible, I do not see how it was not a draw.
 
Not sure how to feel this morning, vintage Wanderlei flourish to basically murder Cung Le - including showing that he still has a chin after eating a couple of solid solid shots.

Absolute classic bout between Hendo and Shogun, the Shogun fan in me wants to call for a draw, especially because neither of them deserved to lose, but I'm just going to say congratulations to Hendo for winning probably one of the best fights I have ever seen.
 
wow what a card.

my bet failed on story. thought he'd have just wrestled kampmann and repeat how he beat alves but for some reason he wanted to keep it standing

enjoyed seeing wanderlei win again

hendo shogun best fight ive seen. shogun can take damage, guess it shows how powerful jon jones is
 
Just watched the Shogun vs Hendo fight again, I think its probably my favourite fight of all time. Having watched it a second time, think I'm going to have to agree that the fight should have been scored a draw.

First round Hendo landed some good shots, rocked Shogun to his core, went for the Gullotine choke... Shogun fought back towards the end of the round, landed some shots of his own, clipped Dan to the back of the head which kind of dropped him. Very close 10-9 to Hendo.

Second round not too much happened, Hendo again landed a few shots and got the better of the exchanges. Clear 10-9 to Hendo.

Third round - Hendo starts extremely strong, his Shogun about as hard as he has ever been hit, smashes him with some brutal ground and pound. However Shogun fights back, first gos for the Heel hook, then manages to take Hendos back extremely briefly. Clear 10-9 to Hendo, however can't see any reason anybody would score it anything other than 10-9 though, was not a 10-8.

Fourth round - Hendo starts strongly, first 3 minutes of the round probably belong to Henderson, however Shogun comes back hits Hendo clean, wobbles him, capitilises, gets to full mount briefly. Close 10-9 Shogun.

Fifth round - All Shogun. Henderson does nothing apart from defend, gets repeatedly mounted, Shogun stays busy hitting him with everything he had left. Probably doesnt do that much damage if we're completely honest, but its complete and utter control, Henderson literally does nothing, has to be a 10-8.

I call it 47-47 - Think Shogun got screwed by the judges again.

However I don't think this result hurts either fighter, Henderson maintains his win, gos on to maybe get a shot at Anderson Silva after Chael? Shogun proved just what a tough tough fighter he is, there are god knows how many great fights out there for him. Probably going to have a reasonably long medical suspension, but after he returns from that... Shogun vs Rampage?
 
Incredible card overall and after that main event I turned my sister and said I wonder how much Dana must be hurting not having that on Fox last week. That would have done so much for the sport I mean that was truely an epic fight!

I can not believe the beating Shogun took at times even Hendo was amazed I mean those punches knocked everyone else out previously.
I loved that move Hendo did where he kicked Shoguns leading leg away and caught him with a peach of a right hand to drop him all in one swift motion.

I would say a draw would have been fair, first 3 rounds were Dans but the last it really was all Shogun, Hendo didn't do a lot then and Shogun defininately looked the more game.
Shogun also had him badly rocked at one point was stumbling around all over the place, think that was in the 4th? Was close to finishing it then.

The Le vs Silva fight deep down went as I expected. Le is unpredictable (well not so much as people kinda know what to expect) but the way in which he does it is unique. That spinning back fist really rocked Silva and Le should have finished it then. Trouble is it's the same thing as the Scott Smith fight. He did amazingly well for most of the fight, lost his range and stood in front of Smith who caught him with one good shot jumped on the chance and finished him.

Faber won in style as well! I love Faber thing he's such an amazing athelete and so well rounded really excited for the prospect of him and Cruz again. Last fight between them was really good and Faber was pretty close to beating him then I feel. Cruz seemed to lose a lot of his pep in the later rounds.

One of the best UFC events in a long time. In the lead upto the new year some really good potential fights.
 
Yup so far fight of the year...

I feel hendo just edged it, its gonna be the most argued/debated fight for this year... but we got the best fight so far this year with it, truely epic.

Hendo vs Jones will be a short fight for Jones and I feel hendo may just be retired from it but at least he gets one last chance for gold :)

Nice to see Wandy pick a W
 
Most of you probably didn't see this, but Eddie Alvarez Bellator's lightweight champ fought last night against Michael Chandler, amazing back and forth fight:

 
Hendo was so amazing he cant even knock himself out
