Seriously.

Tonight's Cerrone/Henderson was ****ing great. They've always got a great main event; even when their matches may seem a little shaky, the underdog steps up.

Their cards are usually stacked with at least three great match-ups and there is also one fight that unexpectedly stands out. Quality organization under quality management; Reed Harris is the man.

I love watching their cards.

yes it was damn good and free.

I thought Ceronne won the fight but damn Henderson I was thinking was on PCP or something he was unstoppable must have been Jesus like he said at the end.

i honestly do not know how Benson escaped those submission attempts. my arm started hurting that last round watching his arm get twisted out of position

i hope he beats varner so we can see Henderson/Cerrone rematch

Dude. I had 1,4,5 for Donald Cerrone. It was close though. 2, 3 were CLEARLY for Henderson and 4, 5 were CLEARLY for Cerrone. Round one was close, but I thought it was a Cerrone round.

I also felt that you could score either the 4th or 5th rounds 10-8

I thot Benson won the fight imo, i even bet on Cerrone so im tellin the honest truth. The only round up for debate is the first one.

Every one is talking about the submission attempts by Donald and fail to relize those were the only point earning things he did in round one. After Benson escaped both attempts he caught Cerrone's low kick and tried for a single, Donald sprawls but get elavated and taken down with a double which earns ben points, Donald at this point is on his back for the REST OF THE ROUND which will not win you points. While on top ben is throwing cleans strikes and landing them, Cerrone then rolls but ends up giving up his back to Benson which scores even more points for Ben all while he is still striking Cerrone, Cerrone, if i remember correctly then rolls only to have Ben on top again landing clean strikes and having Ben end the round with a flurry.

In my opinion thats more then fair reasoning for the first to be awarded to Ben, we all the 2 and 3 were his as well and the last rounds were all Cerrone.

I think it was a great fight but not no fight of the year like some sites are claiming, I also read that Donald himself thot he lost fair and square and I think Jamie Varner will be Ben unless his injury took that much out of him.

In closing I also think those three men belong in the UFC and not the WEC

well said

i also scored the fight for Henderson. that said i wouldn't have had any problem if Cerrone was declared the winner

what frustrates me is people yelling out robbery when the fight was clearly a close decision. just because a decision doesnt go the way somebody thinks, doesn't make it a robbery. round 1 was really the only debatable round, and it was razor close, basically depending on how your judging philosophy is

Who would have ever called Mackens Semerzier catching Fabiano in a triangle?

not just catching him, but actually finishing him with it. he did just about everything right in his debut WEC fight, fighting a universal top 5 FW.

if anyone was brave enough to bet on him, i know they had to clean up
