I gotta say I was disappointed with pretty much all of the outcomes of the card. I was pulling for Bisping, but he didn't win in my opinion. It hurt my heart to see Cro cop lose twice (I'm a big fan). The Henderson and Jackson fight was close, Rampage was just too much for him in the end. Man I hope they sign Fedor soon!!!

the first two fights were the best, But i liked that rampage hendo fight alot to. I was pullin for bisping, but that just shows how much the judges ruined it because he lost every single round and they still gave him the win because the show was held in England....

I was pulling for a split decision with the Hamill/Bisping bout. I was shocked that Bisping pulled off a decision. I happen to be a big fan of Bisping so I was happy!

CroCop v. Kongo...
I think CroCop once again came into the fight with a cloud over his head. I still have faith in the Croation sensation! He can lose the rest of his career but he's still a legendary fighter..I think he needs some mental work and the Juanito guy for his boxing coach...
However come'on this Cheick Kongo is a monster sized guy. I think it kind of overwhelmed Mirko.
I am glad he stood the whole fight and it went to decision.

Rampage/Hendo...
Good Fight. I am impressed more and more every time I see Rampage fight. I think he is great.
He deserved the win.
Hendo is no slouch.

HOUSTON ALEXANDER...
This guy is the future. A pure fighting MONSTER! Watch out LHW division!

Why would you ever PULL for a split decision? A split decision doesn't mean it was a closer fight. The score indicates that (e.g. 29:28 vs. 30:27).

A split decision means that out of 3 judges one guy thinks the OTHER GUY WON. It's really a real problem when you have a situation where the judges disagree about who won the fight. Shows inconsistencies among judging not a close fight.

It would really pain me knowing that I wasn't neccessarily the better/worse fighter that night but that really mattered in getting the win was who was watching the same fight!

Just my $0.02 though.

If the judges scored Hamill over Bisping. There would of been a hooligan brawl. Home octagon advantage there for Bisping.

I found this interview of cro cop in another forum, it is translated below. Apparently Kongo broke Mirko's rib in the first round. Mirko only has a few more fights left on his UFC contract I hope he can turn things around in his favor. Even if he loses the rest of his fights you can never take away the great accomplishments he has. I will always be a fan.

"What can I say, I'm very dissapointed. I broke a rib already in the first round, so I was breathing heavily, I also got two knees in the groin, which hurt my stamina. I feel bad, I fought bad, maybe I'm getting older, he tried to make a joke. I'm sorry, I'must go, my rib hurts. Journalist asked him if he thinks to continue his career after this defeat, he said: We'll see. Thanks to everyone who supported me"
