Bisping vs Hamill WTF?(spoilers!)

[Britt]

Yeah, speaking of which, did I hear right? Did Bisbing turn around to Hamill in the post fight and tell him to "go back to wrestling?"

hello,

unfortunately, this decision is not a suprise. yes, matthamil beat mikebisping. big time. however, in fightsports, foreign fighters often get the "short end of the stick" with judges. it happens to grapplers in brazil, boxers in thailand, fighters in japan. and now england. it is often said that if the foreigner does not finish the hometown hero, they will lose, no matter how well they do. since matthamil did not knock out or tap out mikebisping, there is no way he could have won with this crowd.

we watched the fight with a large crowd and it was suggested that matthamil may have recieved "preferencial treatment", courtesy of danawhite. it was suggested that the fighter may have offended danawhite is some way (possibly due to friendship with titoortiz). agreed, this is speculation, but it is sad when such an obvious mishandling of the judging lends itself to such speculation.

matthamil won. he knows it, we know it, mikebisping REALLY knows it.

thanks.

At least one of the judges (Cecil Peeples) is American and, if I remember correctly, scored the fight for Bisping. WTH??????? J~

The first two rounds look close to me, yes hamill was coming forward more, but the punches where inafective and not thrown with any major force. Bisping was countering affectively, (although again punches where without heart)

First two round a draw, third to Bisping (just) Both fighter need to sought out their stand up game in my opinion and put a bit more fire into it.
