    This was the best moment for me last night, people expected Hendricks to get dominated by Fitch for 3 rounds but he just comes out and put him on the ground with a solid punch. This was maybe the most pleasant surprise for me this year in MMA.

    It as a nice KO but I wasn't satisfied or anything like that. I don't hate Fitch, He's an excellent fighter I think either Hendricks Serra'd him or he's here to stay.

    This is satisfaction-

    I wasn't satisfied. Fitch has grown on me. It was a great knockout though. Beautful punch, it turned his lights out before he hit the floor.

    :hat

    Damn there is a lot of blood in the ring.

    I wasn't happy fitch got KO, I actually liked him after watching him on mma cribs.

    Anyway that's mma. Hendricks seems like a nice guy.

    Dont like fitches style of fighting to much so i usually dont like his fights he is the only one who can make Diego fight in a boring fight.
    But still good KO

    My reaction was shock. He found his timing and range so quickly but took advantage of the opening and with a very well thrown shot.

    Fighting is usually alot of chess moves and its devastating when it really comes down to one.

    Poor Fitch is now coming off of a draw and a huge ko. His top contender status is gone and he is now just another 170 fighter.

    My fave was likely similar to Hendricks' in that picture when it happened.

    :yep

    On a scale from 1-10, I was an 11. First Fitch fight that I didn't get me sleepy, apart from the GSP one. The most important reason for my extreme satisfaction was that now I don't have to worry about his boring ass geting another shot at the title, at least not in the near future.

    I would term it a freak occurence.

    I don't dislike Hendricks or particularly like Fitch, but 9 times out of 10 Fitch blankets Hendricks for three rounds for a comfortable UD win.

    This was the 1 out of 10 scenario.

    I was thinking the same thing even before this match took place. most were expecting another fitch hump fest for 3 rounds. But if he was to fight a guy like Shields that wouldn't happen so I thought it would be an interesting fight.
