Nick had a couple of moments but was pretty much dominated.
Benson made Nate look like a skinny kid they picked out of the audience.
 
I say Benson because I didnt know exactly what was going to happen b4 the fight started.

GSP does the same thing to everyone, so "im not impressed by his performance"
 
Benson thoroughly dominated Nate in a way GSP wishes he could have done to Nick. They both earned decision wins in which they didn't lose a round on any judge's scorecard, but Benson's was much more convincing and satisfying to watch than GSP's.

I'll go with Benson over Nate, because Nate actually earned his title shot with a meaningful streak in the UFC, and looked nearly unstoppable on his way to the title shot. Many guessed that Benson's wrestling would overpower Nate, but the way in which Benson dominated Nate (including nearly fight-stopping damage to his orbital) was not expected.
 
Id say Benson bc GSP was expected to win convincingly like he did.

GSP wrestling was very expected. Nicks TDD defense in later rounds was impressive. Other than that, no big shocker.

GSP vs Diaz not a boring fight but not an amazing fight either, gsp knows how to neutralize everyone.

bendo vs nate was crazy one sided. did NOT expect that.
 
Benson completely outclassed Nate and didnt give him an inch were as Nick showed flashes of success in the GSP fight. Stuffing some takedowns and peppering him with shots in the 3rd.
 
Bensons win over Nate Benson barely took any damage at all and fully dominated.
 
People gave Nate a chance and many actually believed he was going to win. Benson MANHANDLED him throughout the whole fight....

...supposedly with a toothpick in his mouth. :eek:

:icon_surp
 
Benson's!

it's just the way gsp fights..i can't..i just can't stand it no more
 
Bendo, GSP possibly took more damage then Nick, GSP had dominant victories over Flitch, and Kos but against Condit, and Nick he just out scored them under unified rules, he didn't dominate fight wise.
 
Benson had knock downs and was barely hurt in that fight. I also liked his punch to the leg technique.
 
Benson by a mile.

He completely outclassed Nate and did way more damage than GSP did to Nick. His fight was also way more exciting and I like the fact that he was actually throwing his all into that ground and pound.
