What's the worst NHB decision's?

[MEB Boy]

Sometimes it's really hard to call an outright winner of a MMA fight if it goes the distance. This is especially true when the fighters are very evenly matched and the fight tempo goes back and forth with no real domineering presence. Of course, a fight with only two 5 minute rounds doesn't help either. But what are some of the worst NHB decision winners from prior fights?

I'd say:
a. Dan Henderson over Alan Goes
b. Dan Henderson over Carlos Newton
c. Chuck Liddell over Pele. Pele knocked Lidell down to the canvas at least twice with head kicks.
d. Dave Menne over Pele. Pele was proactive and turned Menne's face into mince meat. Menne could only continually defend from Pele's attacks and never really mounted any type of effective offense.
e. Bas Rutten over Kevin Randleman. Yes, I agree the fight showed Bas has 'Heart'. But Randleman just about completely crushed Bas. Bas got a broken nose and said later he almost quit when the doc was checking him out. I'd say another few minutes and the doc would have stopped it to save Bas from needing facial surgery.

I haven't seen the Pedro Rizzo vs Mark Coleman fight yet, so I won't comment.
Also, Randleman was lucky there were rounds in his fight w/ Pete Williams. Kevin needed about 30 seconds to get up after the end of round one. Pete was fully mounted on Kevin and raining down head punches. One of Kevin's arms was trapped under Pete's leg, so he was defenseless. Another 3-5 seconds and it would have been Pete over Kevin by a big K.O.

What's your thought's?

I just rewatched the Pele vs. Liddell fight and I really think Liddell won. Yes Pele knocks him down whit a leg kick but all the fight Chuck was on top throwing affective punch to Pele head, Chuck was blocking every takedown attemp by Pele and was always the one on top Pele was finish for the last 4 minutes Pele was on his back receiving punch. Oh and if a non-brazilian win in brazil vs. someone as love as Pele it mean he won. Just My Opinion

I thought Henderson beat Goes narrowly.

I saw Henderson/Newton as a draw.

Ruten/Randleman was a draw at best.

shrimp, take off your "wrestling goggles" and open your eyes. unless you gave henderson some big points for his headbutts to newtons fists, there is no way he should have got that decision. and henderson must have had goes right where he wanted him when goes was on his back choking the shit out of him.

Angel of Pain, I have not seen the Pele vs Lidell fight recently. It was probably 2 yrs ago when I last saw it, but my memory was that Pele lost a bad decision. I will check out the fight again sometime this month. Which IVC was it in?
In the Henderson vs Newton fight, I was really suprised by Newton's standup. He is really an all-around great fighter. I'd love to see how he does against Militech in the next UFC. What is his normal fighting weight? Does he go about 180 lbs?

I'm not a wrestler, and I don't have any particular fondness for Henderson. I just call 'em as I see 'em.

Henderson kicked Newton's butt in the first half of the fight. Newton kicked Henderson's in the second half. Result: draw.

I agree with Henderson over Newton being bad. I feel Goes got the shaft when they stood him & Henderson back up when Alan had the rear naked. The light kick had no effect, it was the punch that did the damage. I felt that Coleman should have got the decision over Rizzo. I felt Metzger & Goes defeated Sak.

Henderson vs Newton, Goes, Babalu & Minitauro
Coleman-Rizzo
Randleman-Rutten
Shonie Carter-Pat Miletich
Dave Menne-Kanehara(this wasn't a decision but he reff stoped the fight way to soon. Kanehara hit him with a right than dropeed Menne to his knee's. He jumped right back to his feet almost emediatly and the ref stoped the fight. Didn't even give him a 8 count or check to see if he was OK to fight)
