You might not have heard he also fought Jon fitch and KO'd him
Bendo beating diaz was really impressive, but like I said. He lost to edgar twice in my eyes so I wouldn't give him fighter of the yearAnderson was supposed to beat Bonner, Sonnen was impressive. Jones was supposed to beat Vitor, Rashad was impressive.
That was in 2011. But if that counts it definately bumps him up a lot.
Still think Bendo deserves it more since he won 3 title fights. 1 of them was controversial. Bendo won the 1st one clearly, just delusional Edgar fans think he won it.
Two close fights against Frankie Edgar is remarkably impressive no matter what the official records show. Couple that with dominating Diaz over five rounds, Bendo ends up with a title win, a controversial title defense, and then a convincing title defense all over essentially the highest level of competition available in the weight class.
And lmfao @ knocking Bendo for the fights going to decision. Diaz hasn't been finished since 2006 when he was greener than Kermit the frog, and The Answer has never been finished.
Not a bad choice.
Go finish a fight Bendo.

Yeah like he's not trying, its a tough sport for a doer, easy to sit behind a comuter and write this.
Without the Fitch fight (which was on the 30th), Johny doesn't deserve it. Got to have 3 wins to be FOTY. I think Benson is a good pick. No one thought he would be champ after 2012 (and if they did it was in the minority)
I think you really got to give it to Nick Diaz. Most effortless rise to a title shot of all time.
