Are you ******* kidding me?

Where does Mighty Mouse vs. McCall rank in biggest robberies in UFC history? I think it just might be the biggest.

I think it's bigger than Zombie vs. Garcia and Phan vs. Garcia.

Really I thought it was pretty close.I missed part of the 2nd round but thought MM won the 1st and McCall won the 3rd.  Phan v Garcia is by far the worst decision ever.

That wasn't a robbery at all. In the 10 point must system, the right guy won. They were close but Mighty Mouse definitely won the 1st 2 rounds.

To compare this fight to the Garcia robberies is ridiculous, they aren't even close.

McCall won the first in my eyes.  If Guida won based on his takedowns, than McCall won the fight based on Takedowns Johnson never had him in trouble or anything.

Ian McCall did less than squadoosh with those takedown's. Fightmetric will show clear victories for Demetrious in rds 1 and 2.

@theMMAmessiah I don't understand how you can see round 1 for Mighty Mouse. Please, explain.

Other than 1 punch that BARELY rocked McCall, McCall cleanly won that round.

And yes, I'm probably going to realize that it's a huge exaggeration by tomorrow, but right now I'm in the moment and pulling a Joe Rogan.

I would clarify messiah's post to:  In the 10-point must system, the fight was a toss up.

In a different scoring system McCall wins, but that's not the system we have.

@theMMAmessiah McCall passed through Mighty Mouse's guard by will, he was in side control for nearly a minute.

Gregory that would be more accurate but even as a toss-up I think Demetrious won the 1st 2 rounds.

and Anik, he did rock him, landed more strikes, and as far as McCall's 2 td's in that round, they lasted for about 3 seconds and Ian got off zero offense. the 2nd round was closer than the 1st in my eyes.

no he won't, he gives win bonuses to people who get robbed, this was not this situation, it was a fight with 2 close rounds. That the judges gave both to Johnson.

@theMMAmessiah Round 2 was Mighty Mouse's, I agree.

But Round 1, the takedowns DEFINITELY DIDN'T LAST 3 SECONDS. Rewatch the fight this weekend, and we shall both see.

McCalls takedowns were no different than edgars in penn-edgar 1 and everyone says that is what won him the fight.  people need to stick with the same theories and not change them because of the fighters

I dont think Dana will give McCall an bonus. The fight was too close


Its judges that change. Not all judges score the same so you can't assume that TD's will win fights. I wish more judges would put less emphasis on TD's to be honest.

@anik I think it is you that needs to rewatch the fight, look on twitter and all the media outlets, almost all of them gave Mighty Mouse the 1st round and the people who had McCall winning gave him the 2nd.

Yeah, the fight metric ******** and punch counting meters definitely are a joke.
