That was a close round but I think Edgar has this fight.

Yea, I think we're gonna be seeing Edgar vs Henderson III cause Frankie really came out hard in the latter half of that fight. This time, I'll be surprised if Bendo took it.

It's really unbelievable how even though Henderson is stronger and bigger, they are still evenly matched for the most part.

If this was a draw, I'd be happy. The last thing we need is Edgar owning that title again.

Bendo's one of my favorites but I'm not 100% sure I agree with that decision and evidently the crowd doesn't either. Honestly, Edgar should have won that.

I think it should've been a draw, that's my opinion. But I'll take this also obviously. Edgar looked much better this time around than when they first fought. Bendo didn't look as good.

It doesn't even make sense seeing the numbers. Like I said, I'm a Bendo fan, but that's questionable. That really could've gone either way.

I think we're gonna be seeing Edgar vs. Henderson III even though Henderson's won twice cause that was just too close.

I'll agree with that NMS which means Bendo would've retained either but it was just too close. And your right Frankie really looked like he trained hard for this fight. Bendo looked way better last time.

I don't know, Dana has said that Nate Diaz is getting the next title shot so i think Edgar is going to have to take the back seat for a while. The fight was close, and I'm probably the biggest Ben Henderson fan on this site that's why i was so happy about the result. But, I'll admit that the fight probably could've/should've went the other way.

Same thing I thought is that there will be a 3rd fight since this one was pretty questionable.

I like both fighters although I do like Bendo more so I would've been okay with it going either way. Frankie looked phenomenal tonight from the minute he walked into the cage so even if he has to take a backseat we're definitely going to see him in another match with Bendo in the future for that title. That was a great fight.

This fight is gonna be like when Shogun faced Machida the first time. You're gonna have a lot of pros saying Frankie won and a lot saying Henderson won.

It's weird. Bendo won the fight, had better percentages with his strikes and what not. But at the same time, Edgar won more rounds.

It all depends on how the judges felt like scoring. This is why judges in MMA suck, but it is what it is.

I thought Rds 1, 2 & 4 were the only real definitive ones, the others could of swung either way.

The scorecards were bullshit though, 4 - 1 to Edgar is a crock of shit.

Not really gutted for Frankie considering he didn't deserve this rematch anyway, but he did fight well and had a fair claim this time. Seeing Bendo light him up with leg kicks doesn't bode well for him should he move down to fight Aldo because he is a leg splitter too.
