God.....That's a scary thing for anyone to face. Which brings me to my next question, how in the holy hell did Koscheck and Pierce go to decision......

It took him less then a minute combined to beat Fitch AND Kampmann.. That def warrants a title shot.

Hendricks is a monster, however, I think that Pierce beat him when they fought, and I also think that Pierce beat Koscheck.  Personally, I'd put Pierce at number three top WW with Hendricks just behind

@Zarog- Kampmann's chin has shown venerability before so it is not a shock and also Kos and Pierce have solid chins.

Hendricks KO'd Jon Fitch, decisioned Josh Koscheck, and KO'd Martin Kampmann. Hendricks is the #1 contender for the UFC WW Championship!!!!! No questions asked!!!!

@megadave- I thought Pierce and Hendricks was a draw. all rounds were close from what I remember, and Pierce beat Koscheck easily in my book.

@sreimuth is right.  and, good footwork and defense enables you to generally not get hit like that.

@sreimuth I'd like to see a fightmetric stat report, but from what I remember, Pierce controlled the fight and landed about as much as Hendricks, so I wouldn't disagree with your perspective
