Claude Patrick might of got the decision if it was in his hometown..............oh wait

Claude Patrick didn't do much, if any damage in the fight, he was pretty much dominated. Watson did more damage than he received and looked more impressive. It's not even a similar circumstance. Don't be silly.

You're ever-so slightly biased as u had bets on Watson and Ebersole! Sherdog had it close with Ebersole scraping it, MMAJunkie had Patrick winning every round - http://mmajunkie.com/news/26469/ufc-...ve-results.mma , Bloodyelbow had Patrick winning every round, MMA Mania had Patrick winning rounds 1 and 2, Lorenzo Fertitta said he was robbed. Fightmetric (for what it's worth) had Patrick out-landing Ebersole in "significant strikes" 28 to 23 and had 3 sub attempts to zero. Ebersole had two passes. Would hardly call that "dominated"!

I believe the hometown decision is more a feature of boxing, where it's quite predictable. Like if a boxing match happens in Germany, and a foreigner knocks the German out, the German will still get the decision.

The problem with mma is that the judges don't seem to actually watch the fights, so the decisions are completely random. The only predictable thing about mma judging is that Asians will lose, e.g. Nam Pham, Fukuda, Omigawa.
