HORSE SHIT. ABSOLUTE HORSE SHIT. GSP lost that fight and lost it decisively. Ridiculous decision by the judges.

There are so many little pitter patter shots thrown in these fights, and it's hard to know how those things are judged. Also, takedowns vs. escapes...which gives more points? There are all sorts of things like that that happen in these fights, and if you're not sitting there with count clickers in your hands and really scoring these things it's tough to know. I really wish they would talk to judges after fights like they do the fighters, or maybe in the press conferences or something. Tell us WHY!? I've watched every UFC since number one, and what I can say after all these years being a fan of this sport is that the theory that "you have to really take it from a champion" seems to hold true more often than not. Seems like if you're a challenger and it goes to a decision you're probably going to lose. To take a belt away, especially from a long time holder like GSP, you've gotta finish him one way or another. All of that said...Hendricks was robbed. |

I had it 3-2 GSP and called it on FB before it was announced. GSP took 2, 3, and 5. The only round up for grabs was 2 and that's where the split came in.
Also Hendrix tapped to that choke in the 1st, but the ref missed it. I'll also say I liked Hendrix until he cried like a baby after the fight. You're a US fighter that got beat by a Canadian in Vegas and you got your ass booed out of the Octagon. I lost a lot of respect for the whiny ass. If it was a fight at a bar I'd give it to Hendrix, but they score these by round and GSP won the most tonight. Sorry fellas. |

I gave round 2 and 5 to GSP and 1 and 4 to Hendricks. I gave round 3 to GSP until the final seconds with Hendricks' take down. It all came down to how much that take down changed the round in the eyes of the judges, imo. I don't really have a problem with the decision. Could have gone either way.

I've got people all over facebook that saw Johnny tap in the 1st on that choke. It was 3 quick taps on GSP's back and then he popped out or GSP let go. I'm surprised it's not getting brought up. |

Okay. It looks like it's getting more play now. People rewatched the fight and saw the tap.

I don't see a tap. He was moving his forearm around but his hand made no tapping gesture that I can see.

I was at a sports bar watching with some friends and I mentioned the "tap" and they said the same thing, but w/e.

It was a tapping motion, but looking at it now I don't think he was tapping to a submission. He didn't make the tapping motion until after George released the choke.

I called it a tap when I first saw it, but it seemed to be a very quick tap out so I kind of dismissed it. |

I've never seen anyone tap out with their hand in a C shape... always flat palmed. It looks like he is fighting for position and not tapping. At least it looks that way to me. If you look, GSP lets go well before JH's hand (in a C shape) taps him.

Really not sure how anyone can see that as anything other than a tapping motion.
He's definitely not fighting for position. He's not pushing on Pierre with that hand or grabbing... he's tapping. |
