Tough start for the brothers. Walt Harris got koed in the first and Mike Rhodes losses a unamious decision.

Nice card so far and even better caste KOs by Wineland and Krylov. Cruikshank alos very impressive. Krylov only came in at 218 so maybe thinking of a drop to 205?

Stephens looking very good at 145. How can this guy only be 27? He has been around forever it seems.

I don't think Josh Thompson can beat Henderson. Henderson is just slightly better than Thompson in every area.

Cerrone sometimes gives glimpses of what he could be ... just lacks consistency and I think he might over-train and often leaves his best fight in the gym.

Henderson is the king of gift decisions while Josh losses close decisions. I'm saying Josh wins a close one but gets robbed by the judges.

Would have liked to see a little more fire from Stipe but he certainly put on a boxing and defensive wrestling clinic. He is now top 10 for sure.

What's your reasoning for saying that? Their recent common fights are Melendez and Diaz. Josh finished Diaz and should have a decision. Benson won a lopsided decision against Diaz but should have lost a decision against Melendez.

Don't get me wrong I think Henderson is overrated, but he gets gift decisions, he able to make it look like he's winning so well.

I have it 3 rounds to 1 for Josh going into the last. I'm sure the three judges have it 4 rounds for Benson.

5th round was about a push so of course that's Benson's (black skin advantage).

First two rounds Josh had his back for long periods of time. The 4th round he took him down twice and had his back again late. 5th round could have gone either way but of course will go to Benson.

I bet the scores will be 50-45.

The fourth should have been even, but they don't score even rounds anymore. The guys at sherdog gave all three rounds to Thompson, but I don't see it happening.
