Though we're supposed to score round by round, I have always favoured Pride judging system.

Stipe should get the title shot now based on who he beat and who he lost too more recently. His loss to struve is the one that I look at and scratch my head.
What a main event. That was brutal. It was violence and both men were at their best. I loved it because both guys strengths came out. Carlos with varied strikes and Robbie with big power. Those two are insanely tough.
Johnny Hendricks beat both those guys but Tyrone Woodley made weight. I hate that Hendricks didn't make weight. If he can get that back on track and healthy i believe he wins his next fight and should get the shot after Tyrone.

If this really is it for Carlos then holy **** what a way to go out. He has a ******* chin made of marble. He is a finisher. Even at the end of the 5th he was still swinging despite being spent.
And Robbie Lawler has become a 5 round destroyer. What a murderer's row he has gone through. No easy fights since he came back. He has just made one of the most impressive runs I have ever seen. The top fighters that he has beaten since he came back is second to none. Kos, voelker, rory, hendricks, ellenberger, brown, hendricks, rory, & carlos. Holy **** I can't believe it looking at that list.

Night of questionable but all close decisions but for me the highlight was actually 3 great subs in a row.
I thought Soto won and both Morono/Noke & Tumenov/Larkin were complete tossups.
The main event is just another perfect example of why using boxing's scoring system and/or insisting on judging fights rd by rd is just ******* STUPID.
My judging of the fight would've eliminated (most of) the controversy and solved the rematch question: R1 - Condit 10-9, R2 - Lawler 10-9, R3 - Condit 10-9, R4 - Condit 10-9, R5 - Lawler 10-8 and thus 47-47 DRAW. Neither man deserved to lose that fight and it's automatic to run it back

no way on earth there was a 10-8 rd in there for either fighter. also I don't agree with scoring a fight a 10-8 to make it a draw, especially because there's always that one judge that would mess it up any way. however......
i do prefer a draw over a conterversial decision when 2 guys lay it out on the line like this.
the only other fight that I would personally rank up there with this one is hendo/shogun 1 but it left a tainted feeling after to me by giving it to hendo and it not being a draw. hendo did ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in that last rd and got mounted like 10 times and some how not one single judge scored it a 10-8.
although I had Condit winning on this one though I do not hate on the dec as you do have to beat the champ I get it but I would like to see a rematch, and then another rematch after that just because these 2 guys are AWESOME and would deliver every time.
