Fights are not scored based on who bruises or cuts more easily.
I watched the first round quite a few times... Not sure how people were giving round 1 to GSP. Literally all he did in this round was get a quick takedown with a guillotine attempt, and Hendricks popped right back up to his feet. Aside from that, GSP did nothing in this round. Hendricks then out-muscled him in the clinch and was kneeing his leg constantly for a huge portion of the round. Mid way through the round, GSP picks up a single leg and Hendricks uppercuts him multiple times which busted up GSP's face. GSP attempts a takedown against the fence and Hendricks throws a few huge elbows to the side of GSP's head. End of round - GSP walks to his corner with a busted up face and Hendricks is completely unphased. Hendricks took zero damage in this round. GSP took a lot of damage and did nothing.GSP Hendricks easily. You can make an argument for Jon winning, even if you disagree with it, but you can't for GSP. The only reason GSP won was because 2 judges somehow gave him the first round.
Neither one was a robbery.
Sherdog had Bisping winning vs Hamill, as did Fightmetric.
It's one of those fights that has mysteriously become one of the biggest robberys ever, even when it wasn't.
Why? Cuz lots of people have heard is was a robbery. Most people are sheep.
I watched it again, and gave it to GSP. I was a HUGE hendricks fan and thought he was robbed, I stomped my feet and bitched about it for years. After watching it again without biased opinion, I completely see how they scored it for GSP. I honestly couldn't believe Jones won that fight. Ive even watched it again and still feel the exact same wayGSP Hendricks easily. You can make an argument for Jon winning, even if you disagree with it, but you can't for GSP.

I don't want to bring up GSP vs HendricksI HATE THIS TYPE OF RHETORIC.
1. At the time, written directly in the rules,
"DAMAGE" was not only A criteria for judging, it was a BIG one.
2. "who cuts more easily?" ??????
like a test was given, and Hendrick's skin wouldnt open when cut, but t GSPs did?
No, Hendricks just hits harder.
Anyone denying this should be immediately dismissed as a fool.

And what did GSP do after the Hendricks fight? Did he want a rematch?
Please enlighten.
Bisping over Hammill was a robbery.
These two are debatable.
Tbf Jones left the division and is demanding ridiculous amounts of money he knows he won't get for a superfight so... Both went into hiding imoGSP clearly lost and then went into hiding.
Jones won. Reyes did nothing to say that was a “robbery”.
