I admit it. I fell asleep in my bed during the Main Event. Bisbing lost by miles yet got the decision? Whatever. When he did my gf turned to me and says "That's bullsh*t. It makes me not want to watch this anymore." Good job UFC - is that the impression you want to give your casual viewers? One really good fight on the card (where dude came back won w tap out when it could have been stopped) and Mirko looks like crap again. Kind of a boring show for me.

He has the looks of Andre the Giant, and the strength of Barry Windham. Not to mention he's a hero to a few armadillos, a kangaroo and a small herd of bison.

First of all, I knew Davis would win, and he came back from one hell of a head kick.
My girlfriend basically did the same thing, I told her that Bisping got the decision while she was in the bathroom, and the first thing out of her mouth was, "How?"
I'm really disappointed that Cro Cop can't seem to fight off anyone coming towards him and fighting lately. I can't see Dana resigning him at the end of his contract.
Main event was really exciting, both guys took some pretty heavy shots, but it's a shame Couture couldn't have gotten into Hendo's head and told him what he kept repeating on commentary.
One last thing. Sakara went down like a f***ing sack of potatoes!

That main event was awesome. Anyone saying it went too long is not a real fight fan and people only wanting to see KO's should not be watching MMA. It is a chess match, and they played perfectly.
Hamill was robbed and it was complete bullshit. I am outraged by that decision. Hamill clearly dominated that whole fight, and after the winner was announced and they show the best clips of the winner, they showed a take down that was POORLY defended. Hamill owned that fight and the decision was shitty.
I feel bad for Mirko. He looked cool the first round, then went into defense mode and didn't do anything else. At least he went the distance, that's improvement, right?

The highlights for me were:
--Alexander looking amazing. If that dude can get some technique, watch out. (what I mean by that is, look at the bombs he was raining down in a closed guard, what's gonna happen when he can pass that?) ---Hamill looking great and being gracious. I have the feeling that this is the turning point between these two guys. Hamill is gonna go up if he can clean up his conditioning. Bisping is going down. His overconfidence is going to catch up with him, as it appears like he didn't learn his lesson last night. ---Although Cro Cop isn't looking great, let's give some credit to Kongo, he is so much more polished than in his previous fights and this one wasn't a fluke. ---Rampage is a good champ. You can tell he doesn't wanna be a short term champion and is going to work as hard as he can to keep the title.

I posted this in the other thread. Would anyone mind if I posted it here?
You know what I don't like?
Bisping clearly lost that fight. But he had no control over that, it was just the judges (Screw Cecil Peoples) being judges. The thing that really got me, was after the fight when he gave Matt trash talk. He gave a guy he CLEARLY lost the fight to, he gave a guy who's DEAF trash talk!
I honestly liked Bisping up until now. Whereas Matt was very grateful in defeat, Bisping was...Not.
"Who's the ultimate fighter now?"
Christ, here's hoping for a Wanderlei/Bisping fight.
EDIT: Aside from that and Cop becoming a shell of his former self, VERY good PPV. Rampage has improved greatly, but Hendo still held his own. Very good fight. And the others were entertaining as well.
