Hendricks is real.


Fat arse dip in, gripping a spitter.

Lawler extremely classy, so far.

I agree with you, but don't disagree with Shoulderchoke either.

Neither guy deserves the title shot imo, but Woodley deserves it more than Rory. Wouldn't mind Robbie getting another chance either as the WW division is in disarray right now.

Hell, Matt Brown probably deserves a title shot the most, but he already has a fight booked. I'd love to see Johny fight Matt though.....

I agree but coming off this back injury I think he needs an extra win or two and needs to knock off a main guy like a Condit. The fight I'd really like to see is Brown vs Diaz.

Why did one of the judges score round 2 a 10-8 for Hendricks?

I'm sure Diaz will talk his way into yet another undeserved title shot.

Finally got to watch it and man it was great.


Robbie should have mixed it up a little more and increased the pressure he was putting on Hendricks in the first two rounds. He had a ton of success when back Johny up.
Hendricks continues to improve. His striking looked excellent. I was super impressed.
Both guys must have fricking granite in their chins because they both ate some bombs.
I would honestly love to see a rematch.

I couldn't believe Johny survived (at the end of the 3rd round?)....thought he was gonna get knocked out, as he looked completely gassed. Still shocked that fight went the distance.

Speaking of two sluggers beating the hell out of each other for 5 rounds, Hendo/Shogun rematch is next Sunday. Not really a fan of these two having a rematch & not sure why it's on Sunday....either way, I'd be shocked if Shogun didn't retire Dan brutally

Dan has been pretty bad lately and Shogun has actually looked pretty good aside from the Sonnen fluke.

I'm gonna go with Shogun too

I'm going with Shogun. I think Hendo is just at that time man. His lights just turn out way too quick from all the years of taking bombs and battling.

I think he still has a great chin and is tough as hell, but he's just too slow & predictable.

Just looked at Hendos record and he lost three in a row but two were by split dec.



Hendos biggest problem is he's so fricking predictable. He just plods around throwing his right hand from his arse. I guess he's forgotten that he was an Olympic caliber wrestler.

Yeah I think he's forgotten how to do a takedown; I think his takedown defense vanished about ten years ago. Too predictable he stalks his opponent looking to use that big right

There's nothing "bad" about losing a split decision to Machida/Rashad and getting knocked out by Belfort.
