    Real close rounds. But fact that you can't point to one specific round that Edwards definitely won einvalidates any argument that the 30-27 is a terrible call.

    Incorrect. The scorecard has 4 different elements. Of course some judges weight certain elements more heavily than others.

    The refs are there to look after the fighters safety. Id rather see a fight stopped too early than stopped too late regardless of whether I have money on the line.

    TUF14 Finale may end up being better than UFC 139...some really sick fights.

    Diego and Bermudez are both exciting prospects in the UFC 145 lb. division regardless of what happened tonight.

    Bermudez was too agressive and blew what could have been a very gutsy win.

    Definitely agree. Awesome to see who a 'reality' tv show keeps producing season after season. Still nothing better than the Griffin vs. Bonnar season 1 finale. Few fights I remember so well.

    I had a small play on him as well. At the odds I believe it was the best play to make. Long run I think it's the correct play. Hope you win your 3rd play if you have one! I have another very small play on Mayhem. Only because I think Bisping is an overconfident, cocky ladyboy. I am overly biased towards Miller, hence my minimal play.

    If Bisping can prevail next against Miller this will be a VERY profitable night for me.

    The difference between Mayhew and Bisping is about the same as Bisping to Spider Silva. I can drink a few beers and roll out in the alley and throw crisper punches than Miller.

    Miller is just not on Bisping's level. Bisping is more well-rounded, technical with better cardio.

    Mazzagatti could have stopped it earlier but he gave Miller chances to recuperate. I agree with the stoppage.

    Mayhem admits he was tired. That shouldn't happen at this level. Cardio needs to be peak and last 5+ rounds. Bisping owned him.

    Has Mayhem ever blown out like that? In the first round no less?

    Definitely feel the same. Miller can take a punch but didn't put up a fight.

    Bisping still doesn't hit hard enough or have the submissions to be top 5 at 185 imo....maybe 4th or 5th? He would have to wait for Hendo to be 44 yrs old to have a shot there....couldn't beat Shogun either.

    Miller obviously didn't do enough cardio training.

    I've never seen it. Could be because it's his first fight in over a year. Still, he had no answer.

    Hopefully Bisping gets a killer like Belfort or Paul Harris next.

    he might have had a bad weight cut. I doubt it was strictly a cardio issue. He looked kind of nervous and sick before the fight even started. He gassed quickly, but he was no where near getting his lights turned out. he was eating those punches for breakfast. He should be able to win that fight without the cardio issues. His striking was all over the place, but he was able to get the take down before he gassed.

    LOL -- definitely looked like it.

    What a ******* disappointment. I was expecting him to perform 2 or 3 rounds like he did in the first.

    He was probably overtrained and drained from the weight cut. Only logical explanation.
