Prediction: wrong Noons   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Probably the hardest fight to call on that card and Noons is a -185 fav. haha

I hope KJ can get the win here, but he has been hot and cold lately. Couture got lucky in his last fight but he runs out of luck this time around.

Picked & Bet Couture, but I feel bad for KJ. Ryan really didn't do much....

Noons mistake was not finishing him. The only reason he won was because of his name. Kj won all 3 rounds decisively.

I had a feeling Couture would win but I guess that feeling was because the fix was in, or at least bad judging was. >_<

horrible call by the judges

Controversial decision, to say the least.  If not for his last name, I wonder if Ryan could have been signed by Strikeforce.  

Despite his 'win', I don't think Ryan Couture is UFC-ready.  He needs to hone his offensive skills a lot more.  He never hurt Noons or had him in trouble.  That trickle of blood was from a minor head butt, and made KJ look more in jeopardy than he ever was in.  Noons was never in trouble, and according to the judges, got out-pointed by Ryan's leg kicks.  I'm disappointed.

But KJ must share in some of the blame for his lack of aggression.

@Elite Did you see the fight ? KJ had him in all sorts of trouble in the second.

KJ outstruck him in every single round. How that was split I have no idea. That was a UD for Noons all day. I guess if you want to beat Couture you have to finish him.

I thought it was a bad decision too but I knew it was close enough that I turned the volume up to hear the scores (listening to music) so I wasn't that surprised. If not for that I would've had a 11/11 night.

I agree with Mule. I had it for Noons, but it was was close. I not sure I call it a robbery I need to rewatch. Watching it lives I felt Noons one but not necessarily got robbed. I was also working during this fight though, so I may have missed some things.

Terrible decision. Just watched it again. Win based off name alone. Noons landed more than double the power strikes and 30 more total strikes. Couture didnt get a single TD. Literally no way to give it to Couture.

JM what?  You just actted like he said something awful. All he said was he beat noons and he see no reaosn the UFC would not sign him.  There nothing wrong with him saying that at all. Not sure what your issue with him is though, but there was nothing wrong with his statement. He likely honestly believes he won, that happens all the time, there was nothing mean spirited or ****ish about his response
