I think some people have been a bit influenced by Joe Rogan licking Spencer's ass the entire fight.
He ended the first round well but that's about it.
The way Rogan talked, he was looking outstanding - he wansn't.
Pendred 29-28 for me. Correct decision.
So this is always going to be the counter-argument for people with an agenda when a decision is legitimately questioned? You just got Roganized?
1. Even though Rogan is insanely biased, he's still right about who is winning a fight a good majority of the time as there are very few true 50/50's, he is a knowledgeable man, and his job is to pay attention.
2. I couldn't give a fuck less what Rogan thinks. It doesn't influence me one bit. I regularly scoff at his opinions and watch with the sound low. And I'm not an atypical member of Sherdog.
3. EVERY single media member, all 15, scored the fight for Spencer. Over half scored it 30-27. And many of them were at the bout, so how would they be influenced by Rogan?
People are arguing Spencer won the fight because he stuffed Pendred's td's for the most part and tooled him on the feet. Pendred's striking was amateurish, he got Spencer to the ground very little, and when he did a minute amount was accomplished. Pendred just got the technical nod because of the crowd influence. That's actually what skewed some perception in this case.
Let's face it, you're just a biased British Islander. Pseudo nationalism shouldn't be this important to you. Stop being so damn insecure.
