I scored it just like MMAJunkie: 1- Johnson. 2- Benavidez. 3- Benavidez. 4- Benavidez. 5- Johnson. 48-47 Benavidez

But you bet on Beni so you would, its just natural to think like that. 3 rounds were close. 4 Beni, 5 Johnson. Look at the faces of the fighters it tells you who won.Originally posted by gabeComment -
Just got finished watching...I had it 1-Johnson 2-Benavidez 3-Johnson 4-Benavidez 5-Johnson...I think it coulda been scored anywhere from 49-46 Johnson to 48-47 Benavidez but right guy won in my opinion.Comment -
On another note Benavidez's corner was just pure garbage in this fight.Comment -
Johnson won, it was the correct call. Good job tonight. I got my ass handed to me, I went 1-5 and lost a total of $720.00 or 1/3 of my bankroll. I will pray that I do better on the next event.Originally posted by Jesus ChristComment -
You mean telling him he fukkin' won the first 2 rounds and that the fukkin' fight was close going to the 5th and he fukkin' needed the 5th round wasn't sound advice? (*Boston accent*)Originally posted by Jesus Christ
Lol agree, didn't hear one bit of coaching. Like hey pal, maybe set up a take down with striking rather than just diving at his ankles.Comment -
Wonder if McCall woulda beaten Joe B, like he did DJ in the first fight.Comment -
I think he would have.Originally posted by gabeComment -
agreed. I think if McCall can notch a win in the next few months he'll probably be the first to challenge Johnson for the title. The division isn't deep enough beyond Benavidez, McCall, and like 3 other guys. It is currently the women's division of the ufc.Originally posted by Jesus ChristComment -
I dunno bout you guys but I really like this card on Saturday...obv I won't talk about bets since no lines are out yet but I expect big things.Comment -
Looking forward to hearing who you like, JC...maybe ask Dad for a pick tooComment -
YTD 57-52-2 +$9,806.72
2 plays for tonights Bellator 74..
On my way out so just a quick go thru
First play is on Nordine Taleb..I like him to wade through the initial onslaught from Zaromskis and prolly take him out with some power strikes from a take-down bluff...I'll say Nordine Taleb wins via TKO Round 2
Second play is on Jim Wallhead...Wallhead is pretty much solid everywhere this fight will go and I expect him to keep it competitive on the feet with the surprise takedown mixed in..I think it's a toss up when it goes to the cards so I'll take the +260 dog..I'll say Jim Wallhead wins via Split Decision (29-28, 28-29, 29-28)

What about UFC, bubba?Comment -
I'm still deciding...I keep flip flopping on bet size...but I'm playing Peralta, Kingsbury, Hardy, Struve, and the Sass.Originally posted by gabeComment -
I'm big on Jimi and Miocic, so OUCH....Originally posted by Jesus ChristComment -
Good to see u on Taleb as well good
Comment -
Crassus and I are the only ones on Zaromski's, looks like... I'm on him small, though. Smallest play of the night. Can't go big against a rising Tri Star fighter.Comment -
close ass fight. i think taleb took it but u never know with bellator judging.Comment -
fuuck Taleb blew itComment -
Looking like 3-0 so far for the gabemeister.... if it weren't for you and v, I woulda gone a bit bigger on Zaromski'sComment -
These commentators are so annoying... this was not that close of a fight, Zaromski's did enough to win all 3 rounds... annoying commentators...Comment -
wow, it wasnt even close. 30-27 really?Comment -
Yup, I knew Ricardo Almeida would get it right: 30-27Comment -
zaromskis didnt win the first roundComment -
Yes, he did. He had the biggest shot of the round, and did more damage in the round...
Zaromski's landed the more damaging strikes in every round, and almost finished in every roundComment -
29-28 Z easy...30-27 is just wrong..Taleb just has zero fight IQ.Comment -
you're out of your mind, dude. seriously. judging was spot-on. 1st round was the only close one, and taleb lost that one too.Originally posted by PunisherINDComment -
i felt taleb was putting on a clinic in rd 1. only thing Z did was that spinning back fist.Originally posted by gabe
but whatever, doesnt matter if he won rd 1. nice call on your part.Comment -
How is it wrong? You can make the argument that Taleb landed a few more strikes in the round, but he received more physical damage and was nearly knocked out... Landing a few more strikes doesn't outweigh the rest...Originally posted by Jesus ChristComment -
taleb landed more shots, yes, but z was landing significant strikes. taleb had reach, so he was landing more, but z's shots were more solid, and he was landing regularly, so you can't say he was gettin beat.Originally posted by PunisherINDComment -
I cant believe how inept Taleb was in the clinch and against the cage...dude is supposed to be a big strong WW yet couldnt control Zaromskis
Comment -
He wasn't nearly knocked out in the first he got clipped and Marius' foot took out Taleb's and tripped him..never even close to finished...2nd and third def close to out..Taleb's lights were off temporarily in each roundOriginally posted by gabeComment -
Yup that's the part that shocked me.Originally posted by VaughanyI cant believe how inept Taleb was in the clinch and against the cage...dude is supposed to be a big strong WW yet couldnt control ZaromskisComment -
I need this dog to hit for a perfect 4-0 nightComment -
I would enjoy this as well lolOriginally posted by gabeComment
