So did Bendo's decision magic rub off on Diego or did Diego steal it all and Khabilov will actually win a dec.?

That's embarrassing. I feel terrible for both guys. Diego gets to continue going on thinking he's still relevant and Ross gets ****** out of a win. Diego needs to retire. He's ******* ****** now and all he does is get taken to decisions he clearly loses and gets gifted them. ******* ********.

In my opinion Sanchez lost to Kampmann, Gomi and now Pearson. I mean I like Sanchez but the guy should be on a six fight losing streak.

Missed Sanchez vs. Pearson since I was watching Cotto vs. Martinez but it sounds like Sanchez won another controversial decision which isn't unheard of since he's won a bunch of controversial decisions many feel he should've lost.

I think its safe to say after that atrocity of a decision that with these judges Henderson has this win in the bag

This card has been tainted by two judges with asperger syndrome who scored the fight for a guy who did nothing but throw spinning back kicks that missed. Whoever wins the next fight they should just announce the winner as Diego Sanchez, and then give him an interim belt.
