UFC 99 Thread (Spoilers)

[The Buddha]

You can say he won unanimously because all 3 judges thought he won two rounds.



Ok, and, doesn't that kind of tell you how a unanimous decision came about?

I understand that. but IMO i dont think the takedown was that big though, it played a part, but i dont see how it swung the third round in franklins favor on all three cards.

Forget the takedown, the biggest thing in that round and throughout the fight was ring generalship. Rich was in command for that entire fight.

Wand had a 5 second flurry. He didn't win that round, and he looked like he was going to fall over from exhaustion from the beginning of round 2.

Rich didnt really dominate that round either though...either way it was a good fight...

He didn't dominate it, but he won it.

lol @ people not knowing what a unanimous decision is.

Who doesnt know what it is? Where did anyone say they dont know what it is? I said i didnt think Franklin dominated the third, and it could have went either way.

Franklin vs Silva: Dont know who they got a unanimous decision out of it, but it was a entertaining fight, the flurry of elbows and punches at the end was cool to watch.

You made a typo. It's something an intelligent human being doesn't do. Please re-word this post and apologize.

I thought Wandy won the 2nd round but unfortunately lost the 3rd round when Rich took him down late in the round. If Wandy woulda kept it standing and kept exchanging, he probably would've atleast got a split decision.. but that take down in the 3rd sealed his fate.

[Liquidrob]

And to Rob, obviously Cro Cop won so I can't take too much away from him. But, honestly that's an elite level striker? The guy is an elite kicker, but that's not elite level striking right there.

I didnt see the fights yet, so I cant comment on what went down, but I always said Cro Cop was an elite MMA striker and he was, cant change the history of it

[Liquidrob]

His hands and boxing/striking fundamentals are the same if not better today than they were when he was Pride. Take away his kicks and his stand-up game was average at best. To be considered an elite striker you need the entire package standing up, that includes offensive/defensive technique, footwork, and hands. Cro Cop didn't posses all of that.
