UFC 139

[SPX]

It was definitely super-close. Too bad it wasn't a 7 rounder.

Haha I dunno. I think they both might've died from exhaustion.

Still though, this is the new posterchild for 5 round main events. Had this gone 3, we're looking at a 30-27 Hendo win and just a mediocre fight.

R1-R3=10-9 hendo
R4=10-9 shogun
R5=10-8 shogun

[SPX]

I like how Hendo has an IV in his arm.

LOL, I didn't even notice that shit.

I was too focused on how Shogun looks like he was literally knocked retarded.

I like how the Sherdog headline says "Henderson outlasts Shogun". Outlasts? Really?

[SPX]

R1-R3=10-9 hendo
R4=10-9 shogun
R5=10-8 shogun

I remember thinking the first round was way close and could've gone either way.

I think it still would have been called a great fight at 3 rounds.

Nowhere near the fight it became. The drama in the 4th and 5th was incredible.

I couldn't keep up in the chat on my phone, did you guys hammer the fight to go the distance @+250 going into round 4?

I made a series of bets to go the distance at values ranging from +400 to +150. I ended up having a lot more riding on the "hendo by decision" outcome than I even realized at the time. In hindsight, I really lucked out.

I presume we would've at least gotten a finish. Maybe.

Honestly, I thought Shogun was done halfway through the second. I was like, well, it's just a matter of time.

He did not look good from the beginning. His knees are just gone. He doesn't have anywhere near the movement he had before his last surgery. Sucks.

And in case anyone didn't see it.

So should Wand retire now on an old-school kind of win, or does this buy him enough time and current-day cred to fight a couple of more times?

I'd say it would be a great time for him to retire on a high note.

But he probably won't.
