I was generalizing, as I normally do. But GSP showed the world that his striking was as good as Hendricks. Hendricks could NOT knock him out.
But I will say I was wrong about a lot of things, too. I said that the fight would be determined on the ground. Boy was I ever wrong about that one. I was shocked GSP couldn't take him down at will. And when he did he couldn't hold him down or control him. I was shocked!
But GSP's critics won't concede a god-damned thing. They all wanted him to lose and hoped he get knocked the **** out. Well, GSP showed them he's hard to KO. One of the times Hendricks gained top control was due to a slip, not a take-down.
But I stand by my assertion, GSP won most of the exchanges. Cosmetic facial damage made it look worse than it really was.

Im also surprised to see people saying GSP's jab was effective. I still have to watch it again, but watching the fight live i thought the exact opposite. The fact that Hendricks is southpaw took away the effectiveness of the jab and GSP only got close to landing it, like close enough so that a judge would think that he landed the jab but it seemed to me like he was actually just hitting the arms and shoulder or just plain air.
In a five round fight, if the jab was really effective, the opponent's face would show you. The jab is the punch that makes so many faces swell up in a long fight.

Dude just broke the all-time UFC wins record and is the best or second-best fighter of all time and just gets thrashed because he won a close and controversial call. Hopefully they rematch though.

Round 3? Round 5? Especially round 5, how in the **** was that Hendricks?
This is just like the Jones/Gus fight, you people are so desperate to see the chance lose that in a close fight you'll scream robbery and run around like headless chickens. Give me a break.

Looks like Dana's pissed about the outcome.

There should be more 10-10's for even rounds. 10-9's for close rounds. 10-8's for one-sided rounds. And 10-7's for complete beatdown rounds.

so the judges spreadsheet would have options like: draw, close round for fighter X, clear round for fighter X and dominant round for fighter X.
I think the numbers are not helping judges think straight.
