    :rofl

    Damn you beat me to it.

    7-5 was fine, although it probably should have been a draw, there were a ton of close rounds.

    First fight was close enough and spirited enough to warrant a rematch. Rau'shee won the second in a fight that could have gone either way, but that I personally scored 115-113 for RW.

    RW showed, at the very least, that he could hang with a guy who is legit top 5 @ 118lbs. So, it's a nice feather in his cap and shouldn't be discounted.

    Fair enough then, your word's good enough for me. :think You don't put his ceiling as high as Benavidez/Diaz/Spence though, do you?
