What I'm saying is, it's a shot Bisping only took because he had stopped fighting.
So? Herb Dean told him to fight on, he didn't, boo hoo.

Show me three fights where Silva was significantly marked up. Silva doesn't show damage easy.Silva doesn't have alligator skin. if Bisping landed that knee, Silva would have a brute cut in his face too.
Ah, sorry, the latter half of that post was to this thread and the Bisping/Silva fight. My bad for not making that clearScorecards don't exist/are moot unless a fight goes the distance.
Rory was ahead on all those scorecards, but obviously they were all wrong because Rory was losing "the fight", and lost "the fight".
Damage matters most.
In the universe where you screw around for nearly 3 rounds and lose a decision. Anderson is clearly the better fighter and did more damage, but Bisping won on points cause he fought smarter and with more effort
my point was: if bisping landed that knee, silva would get a cut and bleed too. Bisping looked destroyed because he was, not because he bleeds easy and Silva doesn't. he didn't land what silva landed.Show me three fights where Silva was significantly marked up. Silva doesn't show damage easy.

It was too late to fight on by that time, Anderson was running in with the knee.
?? You implied the guy was going with a narrative, rather than the facts. You don't know what you are talking about. Then you replied to him that going by the scorecards aren't how things actually work! You're an idiot.
lolque
How can you even make an argument for the 4th? If anything, that was the round that Anderson most clearly lost due to his antics.
There is no such thing as winning by damage, you win by rounds or a stoppage. And by the only objective measurement, Rory being up 3 rounds to 1 going into the final round, Rory was winning the fight.Those aren't facts. Judges scorecards are subjective scoring media, the complete opposite of fact/s.
The fact that we absolutely know is that Robbie was winning that fight because he was dishing out GREATER DAMAGE than Rory (crazy how they don't score that, huh?). Damage nullifies scoring - all those scorecards were wrong; maybe not for "unified bullshit" but for actual fighting, and the result of the fight reflected that.
I watch for fights, not a pretend "sports" narrative that exists soley for marketing purposes.
Will never happen. The athletic commission rarely makes changes for the better.Install Pride scoring now please.
Wasn't rory on his way to winning he looked much worse
