I knew he could do it. Benson "Smooth" Henderson.

I think they both did a Hell of a job, I would have liked to see Frankie take it too but Bendo did well..

Everyone was arguing for Condit against the Villian 'Nick Diaz', but when Frankie does the same thing, except he actually lands punches and got takedowns, all the banwagoner's say Bendo did more damage and was the aggressor. ******* ******** in the most obvious form.
Nick Diaz says ****....he's bad. But Benson loves God...he's great.

@swick stop being a butthurt dumbass. Diaz didn't do **** for damage, just like Edgar didn't do **** for damage. Ben made Edgar's face look like it'd been hit with a bat. Ben won. The fights are not alike at all.

This will be my last post in this thread, bottom line is no matter who anyone thinks won the fight. You have to admit it was a extremely good fight.

I think this shows the clear divide between the "JUST BLEED" fans who think Henderson won because he busted Frankie's nose open and the fans who know boxing and the scoring system. Frankie out-struck Henderson at least 4 rounds to 1.

Ben had Frankie in the 2 worst positions of the fight but Frankie both out struck and out wrestled Benson! Great fight and card regardless

How did he lose "handedly [sic]?" He landed more strikes in every single round and out-grappled Henderson as well.

I don't think Edgar out-grappled Henderson. Almost all of Edgar's takedowns were ineffective; Henderson was immediately back up, some of them so quick that I wouldn't even consider them takedowns. Henderson had two good submission attempts to none for Edgar.

I really think Frankie won, suer Hendo face was intact, but Frankie was better all around, I just don't agrre how judges scores fights, Diego's face was smashed after his fight with kampman and they still gave him the win, and tonight, Frankie dominated the fight, got the takedowns, and still lost, what bothers me is not that they gave it to Ben, but who they seem to score fights in different ways, it's as if they didn't care about the rules and just score the fights however the **** they want.
BTW I checked fightmetric, and they show very different stats, than what they show during the fight, if I remember correctly about round 3 they showed Frankie over striking Ben for like 30 something punches, and in fight metric they have Ben landing more than frankie in all rounds, weird.... just sayin

I'm super excited that Bendo won, since i'm a big fan of his. But I would not be against a rematch, that was a great fight and a very close one.

I am not a butt hurt. but personally i think Frankie won landed more strikes and such. BUT, i think Benson did enough to score maybe a draw. but his scrambles and sub attempts did imo have him win that fight. do i agree with the outcome sure. am i happy for him yes. am i sad for Frankie yes. would i want a rematch, HELL YEAH! more fireworks.

just saw the press conference. henderson has "NO" marks on his face. edgar has a messed up eye, laceration on nose and toomany to count marks on his forehead. no question about it that henderson did more damage.
