Name a bigger robbery than GSP vs Hendricks?

It wasn’t. Jones vs Gus, Jones vs Reyes, Gsp vs Hendricks, Condit vs Diaz and 98% of “robberies” out there are NOT. lol
 
Yep, two rounds each, and one close enough to go either way. Soooooo, i would go by ''the whoever got their ass kicked look'' to decide. But, i think im in the minority here.
Explain the 1 round in question. You pointing to GSP's face doesn't break down the scoring round by round. He didn't do all that damage to GSP in round 1.
 
If it was so close of a fight, wouldnt you just look at those two guys at the end? GSP got the fk beat outta him. Enough to retire on the spot
So if it was such a robbery explain how you scored it? You can't and you won't.

Bruising on your face doesn't always tell the story.
BJ Penn was beat so badly he quit but look at his face. Its not so bad.

If GSP was beat up so badly why did he kick Hendricks ass so bad in the 5th?
Johnny was so beat he had only 70% left.

Again explain by the scoring criteria how it was a Robbery? You can't and you won't
 
Definitely not a robbery if we're examining under what were contemporary scoring rules which have since been updated a bit.



Bingo^
Based on the scoring, you're spot on.

My hill (to die on) is that MMA scoring in general sucks.
10-9 is the most common score for a singe round; however not all 10-9s are equal.

Some are swing rounds (coin toss)
Some are definitive (dominant but no near finishes)
Some cause a ton of damage to one side (again w/o a near finish.)

For all three to be judged equally, and for the advantage of a 10-8 to be nullified by two swing rounds (in a 3 round fight of course) is terrible.

In the case of what I assume the TS is contending, I believe that the close rounds that GSP won shouldn't cancel out the rounds heavy damage (but not near stoppage) rounds that Hendricks won.

Sorry to anyone who has read one of my rants before if you read this reply in its entirety.
Hendricks "Heavy Damage" is a complete MYTH. He never has GSP in trouble and bruising doesn't tell the story.
BJ Penn almost never shows any bruising on his face. He looked barely hit when GSP made him quit between rounds. Hendricks has a darker completion and giant bushy beard. damage doesn't show. If there was one round that was the most dominant (aka a 10-8 contender or a 10-9 that was more valuable than other 10-9's) it was the 3rd. GSP landed double the significant strikes 31-15. All other rounds were within a few strikes. The next most dominant was the 5th with GSP landing 9-4 in sig strikes and had 2 TDs.
 
why its always sherdogger who have more posts than likes who whine like a b there ?

try to make your sherdog account relevant by rising your likes by postings interesting things then maybe you could come to another sherdogger topic to complain

BTW look at my ratio posts/likes and keep crying louder

With love
I can't name a worse thread than this. Do us all a favor and delete it, already.

Id have to rewatch the fight; but I remember GSP seeming like he was hurt.

Keep in mind, I was referring to what I believe were deficiencies in the current scoring 10 point must system.

I’m not contending that Hendricks won that fight.
FWIW, immediate afterward I was annoyingly explaining to “non-mma“ friends why GSP rightfully won that night.
 
Didn't read any of the comments but that wasn't a robbery. Pigg Rigg did more damage in the two rounds he won but GSP still won 3 rounds.
 
Literally was reminded of Bisping vs Silva and had to find this post.

although it was close Anderson deserved the stoppage for the flying knee. And I still felt like Anderson won his rounds definitively, while Bisping edged his rounds.
 
Islam vs Volkanovaki was the worst robbery I have ever seen or will ever see.
 
Barzola vs. Bochniak.
Diego vs. Pearson
Nog vs. Ricco

You're welcome.
 
I'm gonna go with Sanchez/Pearson.

Like another poster said, Diego should be doing time for all his robberies LOL.
