After last night it seems Diego is just one of those guys who gets caught up winning decisions in fights that really he wasn't even close to actually winning Which was the most outrageous Kampmann? Gomi? Pearson? Pearson is freshest in my mind obviously but against Kampmann Deigo's face looked like it was falling off so im going with that one The Gomi fight was obvious bullshit as well, especially in Japan
Kampman did more damage to Diego but also took more damage. Pearson seemed to win every round, never really take a big shot and landed some hard clean shots, esp the body shots. i think last night was one of the worst ive ever seen.
I'd probably put that one among the worst 5 decisions I've ever seen. This was not a close fight, Pearson won every round comfortably.
The Gomi fight was pretty bad. This one was shockingly dumb too. I wanted Diego to win, but damn, he didn't get a single round. 30-27? The hell...
Wish i could have just to see where this one ranked among the others to everyone, but I am not that great and powerful on Sherdog lol
The Kampmann one wasn't as bad as people make it out. True Diego got messed up, but he also messed up Kampmann pretty good too. This one was way worse. Diego didn't get beat up as badly, but he had almost no effective offense
I just wish Joe Rogan was commentating so we could hear him go off about it. That would have made the bad decision worth it. But, we were stuck with Anik the robot.....
i was so fucking surprised by the decision. but i love nightmare, and i don't want him to be cut from the ufc. conflicted i am. anyway, it was a horrible decision. LOL @ him saying he lost publicly. would you do that, and give away your win bonus, and ability to keep your job? i wouldn't fucking do that.
Its like referres in baseball or basketball. Bad calls are made. But a robbery? Nah. If Diego was knocked out unconscious and woke up and they gave the victory to Diego for having a great fight! Thats a robbery! This was just a bad call , not some kind of dominating performance by Pearson. Pearson only has himself to blame. Diego fights coming forward and looks way busier than he really is. According to the stats he apparently was the busier of the two. Pearson never put Diego on his ass or in any real trouble so why take a decent career from a guy in his hometown when Pearson didnt exactly kick Diegos ass. The UFC would have cut Diego for his third loss in a row. He has a deep love for the UFC, let him fight again. Diego needs to get knocked out and go out like a warrior not by some close decision. Pearson needed to finish him.
I don't think the UFC would cut Diego, he was involved in TUF 1 This thread wasn't made to be about Pearson/Sanchez but more about which of the 3 decisions you least agree with. There are enough threads for sure to talk about the Pearson/Sanchez decision at length
the top 10 worst decisions in mma are dominated by Diego and Leonard Garcia. Last night's may just top them all though. Every time there are two 30-27's for opposing fighters, you know theres some incompetent judging.
Diego lucked out against Kampmann, Gomi and now Pearson. He would be on a 6 fight losing streak otherwise. His new nickname is "Diego The Lucky Sanchez". Last night's decision was the absolute worse. How one judge had it 30-27 for Diego was incredibly horrific. The worst judging ever. Nothing comes close. Something shady happened. Feel bad for Pearson. I hope he gets his win bonus. MMA Hometown judging at its worst last night. I agree with Florian- Judges should be ashamed of themselves.
The Pearson fight, Kampmann turned his face to mush but I don't think he got a 10-8 round and I remember one round being close and Kampmann got wobbled in that round. Pearson won every single round and never got wobbled or really hit with any big shots.
