    You may find this surprising but it was largely a stand up fight up until the 3rd. Hamill had a big first round standing up. You could make a case for Bisping getting a share of the 2nd (or winning it if you're feeling generous). The last round Hamill seemed to tire, Bisping did better standing up but got taken down and dominated so I gave Hamill the round IMHO.

    Thats pretty much what I had it. I guess the two judges gave Bisping the 3rd as well?

    Bisping came across as a bit of a dick in the post fight interview as well.

    Yes he did. Not really wanting to admit how bad he was rocked. Matt caught him with some nice shots.

    What annoyed me was that he offered Hamill is hand after the fight and gave him a hug and started talking **** about him straight afterwards. I'd have had more repect for him if he's have refused to shake hands and talked ****, its least its being 'straight' with someone.

    I don't think it's quite so black and white. It really could have gone either way tho. 2nd and 3rd were close.

    I gave the 3rd to Hamill, he was tired in the stand up (so was Bisping) but took it the ground and did some good work there.

    The first was undenialby Hammils, he should def AT LEAST got a share of either the 2nd or the 3rd to earn a draw.

    I'd guess you're in the same boat as me, just trying to get your monies worth out of Setanta after ordering the Castillo fight?

    Agreed.

    What's worst is Bisping was not even gracious in "victory"

    What a tool.

    I picked Bisping to win and liked the dude as well.

    **** him. No class.

    He lost and still ran his mouth.

    Not what happened at all, Hamill took the center of the octagon, bloodied up both of Bispings eyes early, threw him to the ground whenever Bisping kicked, and he definitely did not ride out the time, he actually let Bisping up off the ground intentionally.

    He got jobbed, even the UK fans thought so.

    right, they were booing after the fight because they assumed bisping lost. I think the count might want to try his hand at 185, Matt looked so much bigger then him in that fight.
