Who Do You Think Won?

interested in seeing what the majority is.

sherdog has a poll with almost 12,000 votes so far. The majority of voters in 49 of the 50 states have BJ Penn winning. The only blue(Edgar) state is none other than...*drumroll* New Jersey

I thought BJ won the fight.

I had Frankie winning that fight.

Figures! Guys from Michigan and Ohio never agree on anything LOL.

BJ

I had Edgar winning.

I think this right here proves Ninja Places see' no robbery, but just a very close fight that could have gone either way.

bj

agree Farmer, this thing wanst a robbery

it was a close hard fought fight and the fact thatFranie got a 5-0 and 4-1 scorecard tells me that he was landing the harder punches from cage side

Worst decision of all time. Edgar got out struck and completed one and a half takedowns and he unseats a p4p fighter? I've never seen a more unjust title fight with a new champion crowned than this in all of UFC history. BJ won the first three rounds easy, and also round 4.

Don't give a fuck, but if the debate on the first round the challenger won is centered around round 4, in a 5 round fight, it is a fucking robbery.

BJ Penn without a bum knee might literally try to kill Edgar in the rematch.

+1 and well said. BJ is gonna take his head off in the rematch, unless DW has BJ move up to make some money fighting Hughes.

sorry I think Edgar won the Championship ounds, how can a close fight that could go either way be considered a robbery???

When the title changes hands in a fight that wasn't actually that close? Edgar didn't win that fucking fight, get outa town.

If that was a three rounder, BJ by rights should have one 30-27 on all cards, add two extra rounds that could go either way and Frankie is a champion now? Come the fuck on.

Frankie Edgar landing his best strike of the night ;

Thats why you dont leave it in the judges hands. BJ was supposed to be outta Frankie's league...Frankie proved otherwise...Frankie won in my book too.

BTW..this was probably the WORST pay per view ive seen in a while...the card was great but the follow-through was absolutely horrendous.

come on your being a tad over dramatic, that fight was close sorry you didint see it

Best quote I have ever heard

"Bernard Hopkins better play it safe and go for the knockout, you never know with judges" - George Foreman right before BHop knocked Tito Trinidad out

Sorry 3 judges all saw Edgar win, you realize sitting right outside the cage is different than watching on tv???

exactly Frankie was supposed to Be RNC'd by the 4th round avcording to everyone on this site

He wasnt and in fact he was fresher in the final round

If having one 10-10 round isn't considered a copout, I had this fight 2-2-1 upon rewatching

exact same score I had first time watching it

I scored it for Frankie. Rounds 3,4,5 for him and round 1 as 10-10.

Penn won this fight more convincingly than Machida in his last fight. Can we at least ask for consistancy with these kinds of fights?

Frankie 3-2.

Damn, I didn't know you were such a Penn nuthugger.

i scored it for Frankie 3 rounds to 2. Bj won the 1st 2 rounds clearly, Frankie won the last 2. The round that is up in the air is the 3rd for me, and i thought Frankie did more to win that round. If people want to act like this decision was a robbery, i just dont see that. Frankie matched BJ in that fight, pushed him to his limit and dished out just as much as he got and thats how i saw the fight.

and all of this "you have to BEAT the champ" is garbage. IMO there should be more pressure on the champ to "BEAT" his opponent convincingly and not leave such a close fight to the judges
