Why the hell would Hallman be the betting fav after getting his ass beat around the ring by Trinaldo and subbing him when he was gassed? Have you seen any other Hallman fights? Getting his ass kicked is the guys' MO, its his ******* strategy. Al has already beaten fighters better than him.

Huh.  Glad I got my pick right, but I thought the judges would have seen it closer.

man sometimes I get really tired of Rogan's balls sucking, the guy was all over Iaquinta's ****, Hallman fought a great fight and dominated Al  during 1st and most of the 3rd imo

I don't understand you guys thinking that was all that close ... I picked Hallman, too. Aside from some nice scrambles and half TDs he did nothing with, he was soundly out-struck, out-hurt and out-takedowned.

I had it 29-28 Iaquinta with Hallman edging out the 1st ... but the 2nd and 3rd were pretty clear cut even thought the Pollack did have his moments in the 3rd ...

I took Hallman as well but other than the first round he was soundly beat in my opinion. AI was outstriking him , stuffing the takedowns , and had Hallman hurt.

I'm not *****ing in any way shape or form. But thought the guy won. Simple as that.

I wouldn't complain if it was a draw but know that AI Quinta won by such a big margin simply because the judges have heard his name before. But hey, maybe I'm just making that up, who knows.

I concur with yossgold.  Didn't see much outside the 1st for Hallman besides a few good exchanges in the 3rd.

Now time for Harris to take out Lineker. If he's gonna keep missing weight, he doesn't need to fight at flyweight. So I just can't pick him. Harris by UD.

@skelliher Al Iaquinta got outstruck in the first and even takendown, he clearly got the second and I saw Hallman land more punches and getting TD's on the 3rd. Hallman recieved more damage but I think it was far from being a clear fight for Al Iaquinta.
I picked Al btw

I'm bitter about that fight, I was confident Piotr had it before hand. Younger, bigger, better record, better competition and I love seeing new countries well represented in MMA but Al deserved a 29-28 if not a 30-27, too quick and athletic he was always a step ahead in that fight. @ Rainbow.

Good fight either way. It was pretty close. Hopefully hallman gets another shot he has huge potential
