Pretty much.

I had Hendricks winning (granted I really wanted him to win), and he did well for four rounds.

But seriously how do you coast the final round in the biggest fight of your life when you clearly haven't dominated the first four rounds?

I hate the idea that "you have to take the belt from the champion." It's absurd. It's absurd in boxing, it's absurd in MMA. But he had not dominated the fight. His corner should have been telling him that he had to win the 5th just to be sure.
