2-1 GSP. Georges picked him apart for 4 and a half minutes. Late takedown didn't lead to anything.

Hendricks just won with that slip by GSP

Should be 2-2, but no idea what the judges may think. Hendricks won the first round, GSP won the last 4 minutes of round 2, and picked him apart for 4 1/2 minutes of round 3, then the slip scores round 4 for Hendricks.

I thought GSP won 3 rounds (2, 3 and 5). I hope the judges don't agree with you and give a round for a late takedown after getting picked apart for 4:30.

Great fight. 2 judges got it correct, and for the 4th round GSP slipped and Hendricks just capitalized on it but otherwise wilted in the last 3 rounds.

I had Hendrix winning too, but it was a close fight and unlike Henderson/Edgar it wasn't a robbery. Most of the people on sherdog seem to think Hendrix won.

The DWFs are speculating that GSP is about to come out of the closet and that is why he needs a break from the sport. Given that most of them are homos it is wishful thinking.

Apparently, there is talk of a rematch as Dana White said GSP's problems are not as big as he made them out to be.

I thought Hendricks won but think GSP will win the rematch. He apparently could not see out of his right eye for most of the fight.

Dana anti-white was fuming about the decision and questioning the integrity of the Nevada Athletic Commission. I haven't seen the full fight ( just 4 and 5), but it certainly seemed close to say the least. I wonder why Dana was similarly when Gustaffson was robbed vs Jones or countless other controversial decisions.

If you looked at GSPs face and Jones face after their fights they both lost, but that is not how fights are scored. They are opinions - period.

Dana is demanding an immediate rematch for this fight but is happy with Jones decision NOT to give Gustaffson and immediate rematch. What a surprise. :icon_confused:

If GSP resolves his personal issues there will be a rematch and I would bet on GSP having an easier time. I am not a fan of going down in weight but Chael is clearly too small to be effective at 205. I know he has a hard time making 185 but that is where his power wrestling game will play the best. It is hard to wrestle someone who is bigger and stronger than you and has a wrestling background.

Sonnen needs to be in WWE. He's a friggin motor mouth who has been less than impressive since he almost beat Silva 3 years ago. Since he's lost just about every important fight. Didn't see the GSP fight but I am glad to hear he still has his hardware. Being champ he deserves the benefit of the doubt and obviously Hendricks didn't hit him hard enough because GSP took the punishment. His title reign has been marvelous. As for Dana White he's a hypocrite. Jones Vs Gustaffson was fight of the year and no rematch but he gets all up in his chest because he didn't think GSP deserved that win.

Rashad was a terrible match for Sonnen, due to the fact that Rashad is a decent wrestler. I expect Sonnen to defeat Wand however.

The only real disappointment was Rory. I expected him to use his range and keep Lawler at at bay, and take Lawler down at will. He seemed to be too hesitant to throw and was constantly looking for a takedown. I expect both he and Mike Chandler to return to form in their next fights.

Where do those clowns get that from? I've (at times) suspected GSP of being semi-w199er, but not a s0d0mite. I think you're correct & those DWFs are projecting their own f@99otry onto GSP.
