For those of you who think it was a close fight or if any of you think that Edgar won (did you see the fight?), what aspects do you think Edgar won in? Or was beating Benson in ?

How do you score Edgars knockdown in the fifth? I had that round 10-10 because of the knockdown versus the ending. Either way it was very close it's not a robbery in any way, I definitely don't think Bendo nor Edgar clearly won that one.

It's depressing to see how many people are quoting 'damage done' when in reality there wasn't an observable difference after round two. All the observable damage was done in the first two rounds of which Edgar won the first. What does that tell you about looking at damage? If the damage is done in the first two rounds that doesn't mean you score the next three based on that as well, it's just not how it works.

I feel like P4P Frankie is the better fighter, but it turns out that weight matters. More strikes and more take downs isn't the same as rocking a guy and controlling him on the ground, and I feel like Frankie and his corner are ignorant for not knowing how the fight was going (especially his corner). More strikes isn't the same thing as better striking.

Personally I would have rather been hit with the 2/3 punch Frankie combo than one of the meaty kicks Henderson was throwing.

Hopefully Frankie cuts down 145, if he's not scared that Aldo will do the same thing to him.

Aldo will no doubt fuck him up. This was close, a fight vs Aldo will not be.

Jesus fighters ... Such a huge turn-off. God decided to bless Bendo with his athleticism while he lets children starve to death in Africa apparently.

God sent his son to die for us so that we may learn to follow him and live selfless lives loving one another. Jesus healed the poor, feed the hungry and protected the defenseless. The reason there are starving children is because we allow it not God, Bendo thanking God because he is creator is a different debate. You can't argue with the example Jesus set and how we fail to come close to him. If it bothers you so much then it is probably for good reason.

Funny fight that couldn't have been more one sided but that shows that you shouldn't look at how easy someone bleeds or bruises up to score rounds.

There's hundreds of fights like this one out there that are reasons not to take damage as a key judging criteria. Saying Bendo won is of course fine, the fight was incredibly close. To look at damage done, but to be ignorant of how the damage came to be (rounds one and two) is just dumb.

Finishing it is irrelevant, everyone had that 40-36 going into last round which is what matters for the argument here.
