I was pretty dissapointed with the whole event. Biased Bisping decision, and a lot of fighters seemed off their game tonight.

I've been thinking about the Bisping result a bit more - how one judge thought Hamill dominated it, whilst two thought Bisping shaded it baffles me. I would have gone 29-28 Hamill.

What a disappointing night. At least it was for free. I would have been pissed if I bought this had it been a PPV.
I want to watch the Hamil fight again. I thought Hamil won that one.

Going to watch it tomorrow morning or maybe Monday, I have it DVR'd. However, since I was following PbP, I have this to say:
CroCop WTF?!

The black guy actually sounds a lot like the Briscoes on the mic ...You mean 'Rampage' Jackson? And that was a good card. The main-event was pretty bleh, but I loved the Bisping/Hamil, Alexander/Sakara and the Taylor/Davis bouts. Except the Bisping fight was total and straight out 'home favorite' pick. Reminded me of Hajime No Ippo where one of the characters loses a boxing match because he's Russian in a Japanese arena against a Japanese fighter.

Anyone care to explain what was so bad about the main event? I liked it a lot. They can't throw bombs for five straight rounds...

It was bland, no real good knockdowns. Going the distance hurt it cause people wanna see a knockout or tapout

So since both guys can take a good bit of punishment without getting knocked down is a bad thing? A lot of those hits would have knocked out a lot of other really good fighters.

Exactly, the main event...at least to me was MMA gold. Every round featured stand up and ground game, not to mention if there was a fast KO like Jackson vs. Liddel everyone would be crying that the fight didn't last long enough. I'll take 5 strong rounds of back and forth over a quick KO.

I hope somebody convinces Bisping to get his head check for damage after that fight cuz he got his ass handed to him and thought he decisively won it

I think Hendo just didnt do as well as he could, which kinda made it dissapointing as in reality i think he would have destroyed rampage if he used more of his wrestling skils, rather than trying to play stand-up. Cro-cop also seemed a shadow of his former self. Add that to the worst judges decision i have ever seen in favour of bisping and i think that sums up why i wish i had gone to the pub rather than staying in on a saturday night.

I thought the main event was a good technical match, but fought in front of the wrong crowd, who don't totally understand MMA quite yet. That would have worked better in Vegas.
