Someone needs to make a Scumbag MMA Judge:
Half takedown?
Full points
50-45 judge needs to be dropkicked in the face. I honestly had it 48-47 Cruz. Faber was stepping backwards a lot.
Anyways, Dana should make this an instant rematch.
I think it is too soon considering how much they hyped this up as a rematch but I would like to see it again sometime.
Cruz did score like 4-5 take downs that last round though. Over all the night was filled with tons of "wtf!?", good win for Cruz at least. Idk why but for some reason I can't stand that Asian guy that's always dick riding Faber.
Alpha boys gotta keep it tight.
Anyone got a working link to the post fight conference?
nvm
can't believe Tito actually won. First win since 2006, and not against Shamrock.
stop. EVERYTHING.

not to say this is the end all, but Cruz pretty much won every round but 3.
The issue with fightmetric is that it assumes all strikes are equal in power and all land flush. Which is obviously not the case. It gives an uppercut from the clinch that completely connects the same weight as a light jab that doesn't fully connect.
I do like that it didn't count most of those half takedowns though.
I still can't completely get over it. Tito hasn't finished a fighter, not named Ken Shamrock, since 2001.
I'm surprised Tito didnt hurt himself celebrating. LOL

Lyoto, don't feel bad that you don't have the belt. You still have that little cotton one my nephew has.
Imagine the shit talk if there was a rampage vs sonnen fight.
Sonnen vs Stann confirmed by Dana White for UFC 136.
Better fight for Sonnen in my opinion. Machida was a horrible matchup style-wise for him.
