Damn, Benson. I sad.
Why would someone feel sad for a fighter losing to a better man? The better man should win, thats the fight game.

Why would someone feel sad for a fighter losing to a better man? The better man should win, thats the fight game.
in any sport people have athletes they like and root for. so you get sad or bummed when an athlete you like doesnt win. no different than getting bummed for favorite football team, or motogp rider, didnt win
to ignore this is to ignore how most people watch sports

I'm that way with team sports, much much less so with individual sports. Everyone is different.
thats why I said most people
because I like Henderson..
I didn't wanna see Anderson Silva lose either.
Doesn't have anything to do with the better man.

I couldn't wait for Silva to lose. I remember being excited to see how close Lutter came to getting it done.
Yea! Pettis won 2 for 2. I wanted him to win for so long. It was wrong that Dana kept delaying him to fight. Even now Pettis wasn't even suppose to fight Henderson in the first place. Pettis was just lucky that he got injured for Jose Aldo fight and then TJ got injured for Pettis to slid in for the spot. I think Pettis is going to be champ for a while until he fights Jose Aldo.

Yeah true, I guess my post only relates to ufc. I just finished watching Silverstone and found myself, D'oh
And I hate it when someone else does that

Good card overall. Josh Barnett, fo' shizzle! Might have been a tad early, but Mir was getting tooled. He was just going to go out for longer if the ref hadn't called it. I'm interested in a Pettis/Aldo fight. One of the few "superfights" that makes sense.
I like Henderson , however he was quite boring to watch. ( GSP Esqe ) I also think he should have lost a couple of those previous decisions. (Edgar for example) Sounds like he won't be getting a chance at that belt anytime soon.
Mir looked pretty loose when he hit the ground. Can really blame ref from preventing extra brain damage. Re-match?

Barnett vs. Browne. w00t11!
Vera needs to find a new job. Or something. Rothwell vs. Big Country? Oh, oh! BARNETT VS. BIG COUNTRY!!! That could have potential.
Porier needs to fight Swanson again. Benson should fight Grant while Pettis and Aldo fight. Mir... I dunno, he's still dangerous, but not at the top any more. Mir. Vs Rothwell?

Boo!
Grant deserves his shot at the belt. He's not gonna get it though.
How long before Henderson gets another chance?
Dana white says yesterday grant gets the first crack at Pettis
"president Dana White confirmed to MMAFighting.com on Tuesday that Grant (21-5) will meet newly-minted 155-pound champion Anthony Pettis (17-2) in Pettis' next fight. Yahoo Sports' Kevin Iole first tweeted the news."
