Re: Tonight UFC 78: Validation
Jzo,
You realize the UFC doesn't hire referees, right?
I watched this in a crowded sports bar, but it was a pretty lackluster card in terms of action. Three of the fights were just one guy slowly imposing his will and getting a decision.
I'll have to rewatch the M.E., but I think that decision could easily go Bisping's way. IMO, Evans won round 1, Bisping won round 2, and I think you could make a case for Bisping round 3. It's nice that Evans had a lot of takedowns, but they don't mean anything if you don't do any damage, and your opponent gets up at will.
I'll have more to say about this card in the next couple days.
