49-46 no way. Gotta be 47-48 for whoever the winner was gonna be.

When it comes to split decisions in MMA, the 3rd swing judge is almost always blind in both eyes.

Both might've been legit losses.
Casey's inexperience with only 5 pro fights & not going for takedowns or using her size advantage in the clinch was her downfall.
Akiyama almost got finished in the 2nd. I missed the 1st round but Akiyama won the 3rd convincingly, I thought.

Casey and Masvidal clearly got robbed I thought..
Casey won 2 of 3 rounds and Masvidal won 3 of 5 rounds IMO.. Masvidal was walking down Bendo the entire fight and winning the stand up.. Masvidal always gets screwed on the cards though, the guy is cursed.... Masvidal got robbed against Al Iquinta too..
40 year old Akiyama really got saved by the bell in that 2nd round, could have been a 10-8 round... Could have lost round 1 maybe as well so I see no robbery there..

Tae Hyun Bang and Leo Kuntz got robbed of Fight of the Night.
Tragic, they earned it.

Well I do consider my Asian fade theory to work.. More Asians lost on this card then won in the end..
Thanks to a strong start (the Dominique Steele win especially) I did come out on top with this event.. I had thought I was about even going into the Masvidal fight but I was actually up and even with the Masvidal robbery I managed to limp out of this one up still.. Did well with some of the O/U's this time around... Props more miss then hit...
Didn't kill this event by any stretch of the imagination but I'll take the small cheddar win... NEXT!!!!
interesting, I really thought Casey could bully Ham around. Rough

She could have easily, but she fancies her self a striker, which was why Ham had a solid chance here. If she'd just dominated Ham in the clinch like JoJO it would have been an easy night for her.

No half black cancels out the other half Asian part.. .. Lol..
Benson I though clearly lost that fight.. He's really not that good though.. He's a bit of a bully and all did was force clinches and grab the single leg, then did very little offensively after that.. Not alot of offense or dirty boxing so to speak from Bendo... He clearly had a hard time taking down Masvidal.. Bendo's stand up is wild and not technical at all..
I still can't believe he got that decision win over Masvidal.. I clearly thought Bendo got out pointed standing that entire fight.. Still feeling bitter over that call..

Bendo is like a more advanced version of leonard garcia. But betting against him winning is simply insane. He always wins decisions. +115 was a gift line.
