***Ye olde Dixie Outlaw will be pullin' for Hendo, Jordan, Shields, Delorme & Pague.
 
I might try to watch this tonight via streaming online. :thumb:
 
I had Dustin Pague winning all 3 rounds, sure enough he loses a B.S. decision.
 
Pague totally got screwed. Does anyone recall a white fighter ever winning a close fight in the UFC?

Frankie in his first fight with BJ Penn. But that was in Abu Dhabi. In US, Brazil, Canada and Japan you might be looking for a needle in a haystack.
 
To be honest I don't see the whites doing very well. I think Jordan might be able to pull off an upset against Pat Berry, if he can use his wrestling. Shield and Hendo are big underdogs and their fights.
 
Shields gets the split decision!
 
Woo hoo! Jordan gets a first round KO over Barry!
 
Dadgum Nelson needs to drop to LHW if he ever wants a shot at (any) belt.
 
Here are the card results. Good wins for Jordan, Shields and Delorme.

I think Barry should be cut, but that will never happen. I hope they give Nelson berry in his next fight..
 
Most of the people on Sherdog seem to think Hendo should have been given the victory.
 
Hendo and pague were robbed but good wins for delorme, shields and Jordan. Keep an eye on jimmo, krause and miocic as well.
 
Evans isn't well liked, but that wasn't a robbery. I thought it was probably 1-1 going into the third round and Evans won that one. A robbery is Edgar vs Henderson II and Korean Zombie vs Garcia I. This was just a close relatively uneventful fight that our guy didn't get the nod.
