UFC on Fox 7: Henderson vs. Melendez

Yes and no...the problem are the judging criteria yet again !

 

Henderson may be too strong and steam roll Melendez. I realize that. I'm leaning a different way. Maybe it is because everyone seems to be doubting Melendez and I like underdogs.

Melendez will press and has better hands. Melendez is aggressive enough to put the fight in the wheel house, and maybe avoid some of the leg kicks with pressure. Remember, Henderson's last few opponents were moving away from him, not toward him.

 

ok that is Benson, **** yall

 

What a long strange trip it's been watching Strikeforce on Showtime and CBS and the brawl in Tennessee all the way to here with Melendez finally making his way along with the rest of the promotion into the UFC. There's a tear in my beer.

 

Mir should have been throwing more body and leg kicks in the first two rounds. He started ou the fight Travis Browne style all flashy head kicks idk why all the ****ing heavyweights out of Greg Jackson's think their bruce lee.

Cormier had a good gameplan and won with it, Mir ate some good shots. It pisses me off in high level fights like this when there only 3 rounds, it's not enough time at all.

Was surprised Mir didn't try to pull guard though.

 

Who won Mir v Cormier?

 

cormier by decision

it wasnt a dominant win either. I thought it was a frustrating fight to watch..

 

Thanks

 

cormier fight been on?

 

Regardless of who wins, this is the fight I've been waiting for a while now.

 

I thought Ben would;d be bigger in stature than Gil for some reason

 

Henderson needs to cut that hair. So damn annoying when he's constantly wiping hair back.

 

rnd 1 Gilbert

 

decent first round

 

Good round from Melendez. Bendo better wake up and start working pretty soon.
