You only coast in the fifth round of a fight versus GSP if you've DOMINATED the first four rounds.

I couldn't believe what I was watching. And then the celebration


Moron.

He deserves no sympathy.

Damn, I forgot this fight was happening tonight.

Weren't movie theaters showing this fight tonight?

Anyone watch in that setting? If so, what was the experience like?

This. I'm a GSP fan who thought Hendricks deserved the win. That said, that was just dumb (and arrogant) not to go balls to the wall in the fifth. Right or wrong, in both boxing and mma, the champ usually wins the decision in a close fight. Hendricks had to have known this (his corner certainly wanted him to bring the fight and finish strong) and yet he just seemed to coast. Hard to feel that bad for him since he basically gave the fight away.
