I've been reading reactions from a variety of message boards. The controversy seems to be coming from Henderson generally landing lots of strikes, many more than Cowboy, but a lot of them were afterthought kicks that didn't matter. If you only looked at significant strikes and grappling, well it was still very close, but Cerrone was slightly better. [Reply]

All I saw was Cerrone being the aggressor and landing better strikes in 1 and a few weak take downs in the other rounds. Missed probably 2/3 of rounds 2. & 3 so I was a bit surprised people thought Benson won. [Reply]

like I said, 1 and 3 were close, but Cerrone clearly won #2. If you give round 1 to cowboy, then thats it for Bendo [Reply]
McGregor has gotten big since I've been out of MMA. This will actually be the first McGregor fight I watch. Looking forward to it. Hope he lives up to the hype. [Reply]
