I expect yet another weird decision.

EDIT: Nevermind, Benson is closing the deal in the last few minutes.

Well, I'd say Bendo, good technical fight but Masvidal was a step behind ... dude's cardio is out of this world ...

Lol, that was not a split. I'll take it though I put a wager on Bendo winning by split/majority decision in the wagering league, so that's cool. Thank you one poor judge.

Huh, a highly competitive fight, with Bendo having a slight cardio edge in the later rounds, scored a split decision for Ben Henderson.  

That never happens.

Hopefully we still get to see Masvidal fight Stun Gun. Masvidal may have won a 3 round fight though.

IDK, that was pretty confusing to judge. It felt like Benson was maybe more active? but wasn't necessarily controlling more of the round. A fight where I would like to see the statistics during the fight. Benson winning was likely the right choice, however.

every time I start liking Benson I go and make the mistake of listening to his post-fight interviews (or him talking in general).

I think he's genuine, I just can't relate to that goody-goody-gumdrops kind of persona. Even GSP had his dark place in 'is 'ead sometimes.
