   You got this one too..dunno if I agree with the decision.. Rich took a couple unfortunate shots, the headbutt, the eye poke.. I think Rich took rounds 2 and 3.

   I guess we can’t help but be biased when watching the fight and scoring the rounds in our heads, I though rounds 1 and 2 were Hendos, gave 3 to Franklin. The judge that scored 30-27 Franklin was on drugs….

   Yea I agree with that for sure, he’s actually the same judge who scored Hamil Bisping 30-27 Hamil.

   Seems to be involved in a few controversial decisions.

   You gotta admit tho, the headbutt and the eyepoke were pretty unlucky.

   Headbutt did cut him but I don’t think it affected his performance. Eye pokes always suck, just happy it didn’t stop the fight.

   I think it’s a better result having Hendo coach TUF, Franklin’s done it before, and assuming he beats bisping, I don’t really want to see Franklin v Silva 3.

   Definitely. In case you haven’t seen them, Franklin has been quoted in a bunch of interviews saying he didn’t really want to coach TUF again. Furthermore I think Hendo would actually be the better coach overall between them.

   Also, in my opinion Hendo should be down at 185 and Ace should be up at 205, so hopefully this result solidifies them in their respective weight classes. Everyone is BJing around in different weight classes a little too much.
