LOL WTF???

Oh no Ben... No..........

[benefactor]

Those kids are going to have a load of hair.

[2centsworth]

Exactly as predicted
I saw Melendez in 1 tied in 2 but I can see giving that to Melendez
last 3 Ben

[Brunodf]

Rounds 1 and 5 Gilbert no doubt.
Round 4 Bendo no doubt.
Rounds 2 and 3 were close

I gotta watch it again.. I bet fight metric is for Benson in a tight one..

[shyne]

Benson did more damage and his strikes were more powerful. Gilbert's leg looked like hamburger meat. It was the right call.

[Stringer_Bell]

Gilbert got Rd 1 and 5, Bendo controlled the middle rounds. You've got to beat the Champ to be the Champ, Gilbert didn't do enough but he looked great. I'd like to see Gil against Gray Maynard or Pettis (after the Aldo fight).

I wish they would've let Cormier call out Jon Jones after his fight.

Dana will give Gilbert a rematch

MAIN CARD (FOX, 8 p.m. ET)

• Benson Henderson vs. Gilbert Melendez - for lightweight le
• Daniel Cormier vs. Frank Mir
• Nate Diaz vs. Josh Thomson
• Matt Brown vs. Jordan Mein

• Joseph Benavidez vs. Darren Uyenoyama

At last

Btw. that was the best card from top to bottom on free tv IMO. Although there were many great cards.

Maynard fights Tj Grand- maybe a winner of that fight will challenge Melendez?


I gave two first rds to Gil and the rest to bendo.


Hmm Mir will not win against any wrestler. He always got pinned to the fence and that's it. And Cormier easy can cut down to lhw. Lose that 15 pds of fat and the rest is easy.

[polandprzem]

btw FOX got it wrong when underlining HW's as a 206+ division

[polandprzem]

eee Dana said Maynard vs TJ as eliminator

[The TroutBum]

I'm so depressed. that fat !

[polandprzem]

Mir
Trout

[dbreiden83080]

By the numbers Gilbert did lose the fight..

Fight metric scored the fight close for Bendo and it shows he outlanded Gibert by a ratio of almost 2-1..

Apparently Jordan Mein had his orbital bone broke early in his fight with Brown.
