Shutup fatty bombatty. And I don't live in Jersey. I have been a big fan of Frankie Edgar ever since I saw him whoop the favourite Tyson Griffin in his first ufc fight in one of the most exciting fights I've ever seen. Like many of his fights.
This is not boxing - Its MMA - It did look like a slip. On the other hand - Hendo ended the fight in top position raining punches down on Frankie. There's a case for Hendo in the 5th.
the worst part about this thread is the morons claiming edgar should have won because he had a better connect rate (which of course he didn't) ben hit more, hit harder, and apart from being taken down a few times, he did more on the ground
I'm sick and tired of seeing Edgar getting his ass kicked in fights and keep getting rematches. Enough is enough! He's not p4p material. I also think the TS is a ******! Edgard didn't do ****. He didn't out-struck Ben, he didn't landed the most significant punches, he wasn't close to finish the fight either. I keep hearing people saying he defended kicks? WTF? Since when catching the other guy leg is defending a kick? The kick did damage anyway. Also the takedowns didnt do ****. In fact Ben almost KO'ed him off his back. LOL!
I thought Bendo won the fight 3-2 why Edgar thought he won the fight (and pointing out this post fight) because of a few take downs while doing nothing on the ground was laughable.
I thought Frankie won close fight. Ring generalship more power shots. Edgar defending Bensons attempted leg kicks like a champ. Fight metrics can suck my dick, scoring isn't done by computers.
benson controlled the ring benson hit more benson hit harder catching kicks with your ribs is not defending them
Edgar caught those almost all of those kicks after they landed flush. I have no idea why Rogan was losing it in his pants like that every time that it happened. Edgar was the one who got hit. He was also unable to take Henderson when he was off balance on one leg a few times. If anybody looked good in those sequences it was Henderson not Edgar. It's yet another case of bad commentary skewing perception of the fight.
Also you see Bendo Land Punches to Edgar face while Edgar held his leg. Bendo landed the harder shots..did more damage..and when Edgar took him down couldn't do NOTHING! When you do a take down, you need to hold controll and he didn't.
