All the conspiracy theory dumbshits aside, and all the people a notch below them that think Bisping was "out" after round 3

Please fucking explain what on earth Anderson did to win round 4.

It's a 10 point scoring system. The fight isn't judged as a whole. If it was, Anderson won. But that's not how it works. Bispings face being more damaged doesn't mean anything. That's not how scoring works either.

No one can argue Bisping didn't win the first 2 rounds, and no one can argue Silva didn't win 3 and 5.

so how the fuck does Anderson win round 4? He quite literally did nothing for 4 and a half minutes of that round, then started being aggressive towards the last 20 seconds. That doesn't win you a round. He tried to "steal" the round after doing jack shit for almost all of it and it didn't work. Bisping was more aggressive, pushed him against the cage and was significantly more active.

He had Bisping on the ropes and completely gave it away with the ridiculously passive 4th round. It's his own fault. It's a fight he had won and didn't.
 
Anderson Silva attracts man children as fans. Same shit everytime.

It's really apparent now.

>It's a conspiracy
>Bisping was KNOCKED OUT COLD and they let it go on!
 
Anderson won round 4 the same way Lawler took round 3 in his fight with Condit. :) Just proves there is no consistency in mma judging at all.
 
Silva gave up round 4. Chose to sit on the cage and do those ridiculous parrying movements. Could have easily finished Bisping in the first couple of minutes that round after already crumbling him a minute prior to the 4th.
 
Silva lost, clear as day anyone who says other wise is delusional. and i've always said other than maybe nick diaz, Anderson has the most delusional followers ever.
 
I would say he took the 4th because of the last minute, as well as Bisping missing a ton of shots and backing up a lot in the 4th. However if someone said the opposite I would disagree but I can see you could say that and it be just as valid.

Exactly this. I don't know why it's so perplexing to people. Silva didn't do shit in round 4 even though he was more than capable of doing it. He just threw round 4 the fuck away. People should be mad at him, not the judges (at least for the main event)
 
bisping was more active but Silva landed the bigger shots. I think he landed a superman punch at the horn which had Bisping leaking everywhere. I gave it to Silva barely. Could see if you gave it to Bisping also tho.
 
I can explain....

Anderson didn't win round 4 and lost the fight.

I hope that clears everything up.
 
Round four is, at least, debatable. You demonstrate that is hard to make a case for anderson. I could write a post demonstrating that is equally hard to make a case for bisping. Maybe a draw it would be fair. Bottom line is that nobody can complain about the decision: but bisping couldn either if it had gone other way. On the other hand, I don't know what to think about that third round knee. I seen all kinds of bs in this sport and crazy stuff happening, to the extend i can't be surprised with anything. I think what happened was very much similar to the Referee getting victor up against a. jonhson. It is a mix of audience pressure with "don't know what to do"... bisping was in a openly vulnerable position. A clear knock down. Of course he could recover after the bell. But Any knocked fighter can get up to the next round. That doesnt mean that he judge have the power to say the fight is not over to wait for the next round.
 
I wanted Silva to win, but I can't give him round 4.

Bisping didn't win the fight, Silva lost it. Although, Silva won the fight if it's scored as a whole, which it's not.

It was frustrating. I leaped out of my seat once Silva dropped Bisping. A few more seconds and the fight was done. Next round comes and Silva has him on the ropes. He just.... Chooses not to pull the trigger.

>most title defenses
>delusional followers.

Okay.
 
>most title defenses
>delusional followers.

Okay.
What is that even supposed to mean?

just because he has the most title defenses doesn't mean his followers aren't delusional. it's not as if i said he doesn't deserve to have followers.

I worded that terribly, my bad.
What I meant is that he has these fans with delusional expectations of who he is based off his impressive string on title defenses.

Because Anderson did more in that last 30 seconds than Bisping did in the other 4 and a half minutes.

Let's use Pat Barry vs. Kongo as an example, Pat landed about 50 good strikes in a row, Kongo landed one it finished Pat. One significant strike can be worth more than 50 good unanswered strikes. So with that in mind 4:30 of Anderson letting Bisping try to win, while he clowns around isn't necessarily more significant than the 30 seconds of solid offense landed by Anderson at the end of the round.

Also the third round was definitely a 10-8 round. All rounds are not created equal, that's one of the biggest problems in MMA. Imagine if hockey games were scored like that and you could lose one period 5-0, and win the next two 1-0 each and then win the game. It would be a joke, it's ridiculous. This fight highlights that more than ever. I hesitate to even call it a fight, since the guy who got his ass handed to him won the contest.

Also I'm pretty sure there's some sort of rule that if you can't make it back to your corner within 30 seconds you lose. People shit all over Yoel, but Bisping got plenty of extra time on the stool there. Bisping stopped defending himself when he dropped his mouthpiece. He was trying to pull a Jamie Varner (vs. Razor Rob) and it worked against him. He doesn't deserve extra stool time for that.

I can understand how people could score it for Bisping using 10-9 scoring, but it's ridiculous that Bisping won that "contest"
 
Except that's not even remotely true.

Bisping landed more in round 4.

He was more aggressive, active, and pushed Silva against the cage, which is part of judging criteria.
Look, ill have to watch 4 again. It is literally the only debateable round.

Im glad you provided punch stats, unfortunately they deem everything significant, which is silly as hell, imo.

As i was watching it my thinking was, 'Bisping has this round due to positioning and activity, but a few really telling shots could take this round."

I felt, at the time, that Anderson landed those, and more than a few.

As ive said in another post i expected most would see it for Bisping.

I just see big shots as outscoring top/ ring position or ineffective output. I see it like touchdowns outscoring time of possession.

Really, i feel no one should be calling it as obvious to either fighter.

Theres also a case for a 10-8 in rd 3, although i didnt give it because i felt that it was mostly just about that knee, and that it was an unusual situation. Bisping only simply lost the round other than that sort of cheap knee.
