You missed my point, so he beat Palhares and Franklin. The latter very controversially. Its how he won against Franklin, if you have been following his career you MUST know that he isnt at that level anymore. What do I mean by that?, He wont be able to beat the elites of any division Silva or Rashad. He just cannot sustain the energy level. My point is Hendo is a champion, hes been there, done that. Theres a point where you are past it and you never get back to a certain level. Hendo can still beat some good guys, hes that good. But I cant see him as a champion again
How was it controversial? He won two rounds and lost one :huh I do agree that he seems past his best though, who isn't at 38 years old? But he's still better than everyone else at 185 other than Silva and could beat anyone at 205.
Its controversial because the second round was very close and alot of people would have given that to Franklin. He outstruck Hendo and Hendos points came from that takedown which he wasnt able to do anything with
