Your conclusion?


My conclusion? MMA isnt point-fighting. You cant look at these stats are show who was the winner.


Right, looking at who landed the most frequent and damaging strikes is a horrible way to judge a fight?

"didn't fightmetric have Bisping over Hammil?"

No, they had Hammil as the clear winner, as you can see from their site.

"Also, was this broken down in terms of rounds since UFC judges based on rounds?"

yes

Most bullshit decision I have seen in a long time, worse than Bisping V Hammel by quite a bit. Everyone involved except for Shogun should be embarrassed.

that was not really even a close fight. shogun won by quite a margin.

Shogun dominated, Machida looked like freddy kruger after the fight

Shogun owned him.

 You have to pretty much TKO the champ to win...

Thats the way its always been...

ProMagnus - so by those stats excluding leg kicks Lyoto landed more strikes 38 to Rua's 33.

Leg kicks don't win Championships.


Forrest disagrees.

.

those stats are fantastic, thanks

i think Ruas believes leg kicks wins championships. yes he finished, but damn what a shit decision last night

ok...idiot look at the fighters and se damage done.....rua wins again

I guess the judges were going by cheers and chants. People kept chanting Ma Chi Da through out the night like that was going to give him special power to "shar yu ken!" Rua.

The truly funny part of all this is that there are still people who think Machida won!. Even after all this evidence to the contrary!
