Who won the fight? Pictures don’t always tell the story


Brett Rogers had a little lump over his right eye but that was about the only way you could tell he has just fought. Meanwhile Fedor Emelianenko looked like he'd been by a Mack truck. Is that a broken nose? The Fedor camp wouldn't say but his nose is oddly curved to the right. The world's best heavyweight didn't dominate Rogers, but when it counted most Fedor landed the fight changing punch in the second round knocking out the bigger fighter with a perfectly timed counter right. The pictures may tell a different story but there's no controversy when there's a knockout.

There may be a little argument when it comes to the Fabricio Werdum-Antonio Silva fight. Many media folks cageside thought Silva had won a close decision. That's not the way all three judges saw it giving the decision 29-28 to Werdum. Silva didn't argue the point much in the press conference although he did say he put Wedrum on his butt twice with better standup in the second.
