After reading the post about the Forrest v. Rampage fight I was wondering what fights did you all think wasn't controversial dispite what everyone else thought. Beside the Forrest v. Rampage fight, I never understood the Vera v. Couture controversy. I thought Vera won the second but Couture won the first and third pretty easily.
 
Though it's been years since i saw that fight. That is what i remember from it.
 
Jones-DC

Obvious 4-1 for me.

Seen some posters claiming it could be a draw / 48-47 DC
 
For me......it was Gus/JOnes.....I had it 3-2 for Jones in a super close fight. People were screaming Gus got robbed.....but it could have gone either way.
 
Every close fight that gets called a robbery. Examples: Sanchez/Kampmann, Gus/Jones, etc.
 
I remember thinking Bonnar handily beat Jardine way back when.
 
Bones vs Gus.

It was an awesome fight and Gus definitely won 2 rounds, but bones won 3.

People act like it was some crazy all time mma robbery.
 
Bendo/Melendez - Doesn't get brought up as much anymore but I remember after that fight tons of people were screaming robbery but I felt Bendo clearly won.
 
Jones/Gus.

Gus did great, but it really seemed like a clear cut 48/47 for Jones.
 
Recently for me it was Lawler-Hendricks II.
I had Lawler winning 1-4-5 pretty comfortably and couldn't really understand what Rogan was watching.

There's also Bendo-Edgar II, Bendo-Gil & Bendo-Thomson.
Smooth isn't getting half the recognition he deserves.

But if we're going old school, it's got to be Nogueira-Rodriguez.
Learn the Pride FC judging rules, people.
Effort to finish the fight > top control. It's not rocket science.
 
Diaz/condit, watched and watched and seemed like Carlos clearly won
 
Gus vs Jones, Bendo vs Edgar 1, Diaz vs Condit to a degree though I atleast GET that one.
 
Diaz vs Condit - Diaz clearly won.

1,2 & 5
 
Diaz/condit, watched and watched and seemed like Carlos clearly won

Oh yeah this one for sure, Condit clearly outstruck Diaz in a pretty good fight. Dunno why people were so butt hurt.
 
Rampage vs. Forrest, Rampage easily won 3 of the 5 rounds.
 
I think people are butt hurt because it wasn't what they expected from Condit
