Aside from that short elbow Dan didn't really do much in the 2nd.

Better than the nothing Rashad Evans did in the 2nd. The short elbow was the only strike that hurt Evans in the round but overall Dan landed a bit more in the round. Stuffed all the takedowns..even the one that they counted for Evans probably shouldnt have been since Dan was never really down. Horse shit decision.

29-28 Rashad

huh Shad 29-28 is trending on twitter seems alot of people thought the decision was right.

1-Dan, 2-Rashad,3-Rashad. 29-28 Rashad. IMO.

Oh...well if Vinny Magalhaes says so.

Hendo vs. Lil Nog retirement match.

I'd keep Shad away from Glover unless the brass are keen to eliminate a contender for Bones.

I agree with this 100%. Had it 29-28 Hendo.

This card was just plain horrible.

Dana is aroused by Woodley's tree trunks.
 
It was a boring performance by Shields and he didnt hurt Woodley once, but he flat outworked Woodley. He landed way more strikes and he controlled what was mainly a clinch battle.
 
Woodley is also the last person who should be upset about losing a fight in that fashion.

Shields won that fight.

Worst card ever

Jake Shields fucking sucks

3/10 a few okay fights and stops. I though there were 4 bad decisions, too very bad decisions. Mma has been getting off easy with a large amount of exciting frequent stoppage cards, little need for judges. UFC 161 back to reality of crazy judging.

Sheilds did win but it does call in to question the way fights are judged, I mean Tyrone was the one doing damage, stuffing takedowns and dropping Jake with leg kicks. I know not every fighter is a beast but Jake really looked weak in that fight, should simply outworking opponents without doing any damage or threatening with subs warrant a victory ?

Hendo really needs to mix up his game cause just looking for that right hand isn't going to cut it anymore, most agile fighters will be able to circle away from the shot. Just imagine the clinic Bones would have put on him.

It's not a crime to say Woodley won, or that Jake won. Neither fighter did much of anything of worth. Shields was much busier, but Woodley stuffed all the takedowns. Neither fighter did any real damage other than Woodley kicking the leg out from under Jake while he was kicking as well. I feel the judges got it right, but this was the kind of fight that really calls personal preference into things. What you give more weight to was paramount in judging it because the fighters didn't give us anything truly concrete to work with.

Yeah I suppose it is all about preference.

I should have went with my gut and not ordered this card.

Hendo vs lil Nog
Glover vs Mousasi
Jimmo vs Wanderlei
Bader vs Te Huna

already made:
Shogun vs Sonnen
Davis vs Machida

Honestly If I was in charge I'd keep Glover on standby for Bones or consider making a fight with DC to crown a #1 contender.

Mousasi vs Glover can be a #1 contender fight. Mousasi has career wins that make him a more worthy contender then most recent LHW challengers.

Mousasi is dropping to Middleweight though.

Yeah but MW is about to get turned on it's head when The People Champ Chris Wiedman beats Anderson.
