Only thing i remember from that fight

 

[Just Creed]

Such a boring fighter though

 

[Credo]

That was ragdolling on a nother level.

 

[Kaynan]

Such a boring fighter though

i really don’t think he liked hurting people. Super nice guy

 

[BjPenn2017]

The only ufc title defense of Henderson’s that wasn’t questionable lol

 

[Kel Guapo]

He was doing calf kicks before they were cool
And the thigh punches to set up the left to the chin? Beautiful

Such a boring fighter though

I disagree as Bendo has been involved in way too many classics for that label. I honestly cant even recall a truly boring fight by the man during his ufc run. I thought people didn't like him cuz he won close decisions?
His last bellator fights have been pretty rough though.

Benson was a great fighter. Not sure why Antony Pettis was his kryptonite. Stylistic should be an easy fight for him.

 

[GueseGuy]

Benson is still really fucking good. I think even he underestimated Bellator and how tough it was going to be. It’s amazing how casuals think you lose your “UFC superpowers” once you leave the organization.

Benson was a great fighter. Not sure why Antony Pettis was his kryptonite. Stylistic should be an easy fight for him.

Pettis is active off his back with subs (2nd fight Pettis was able to get an armbar from the bottom) and Benson wasn't a top control type of grappler. Pettis would get controlled by those type of wrestlers/grapplers who focus on position and top control.

Boring split decision merchant

 

[cshireman4]

Point fighting decision machine that I had hoped to forget ever existed. Thanks a lot, TS...

 

[chs140]

Bendo gave us some classics. Wild to see him called boring.

 

[fortheo]

The only non controversial fight of Benson's championship reign.

 

[SanDiego**]

Who hasn't trounced the Diaz bros

 

[gluehuffer1776]

Poor Nate. Still the same fighter from 10 years ago.

Weird because I cant remember any of his fights being not boring...

Easy to remember, used the "anti-Diaz" gameplan to a T. Just leg kicked him for 5 rounds. Probably his strongest title fight.
