UFC 93 Results
Just saw the even live online. Here is how it went down
Dan Henderson vs Rich Franklin
Dan Henderosn won by Split Decision, he took the 1st 2 rounds by controlling Franklin on the ground. 1 judge scored it 30-27 in favor of Franklin, I dont think that judge saw the same fight. Hendo came out and hit Rich with a nice overhand right, and was able to control him on the ground later in the round. Round 2 was much the same, Hendo took Rich down and controlled him for the last 2 minutes or so, landing some elbows and punches. Rich did good on his feet though, he landed some solid kicks. He also got cut on an accidental headbutt, and was poked in the eye accidentally in the 3rd, which killed his momentum in that round.
Mauricio "Shogun" Rua vs Mark Coleman
Shogun wins by KO with 15 seconds left in the 3rd. This was brutal to watch, Coleman came out quick with a few takedowns and then gassed out midway through the 1st. Rua could've ended it in the end of the 1st but didn;t. 2nd round he looked as tired as Coleman and both didn't have much left in the tank. Not a great showing by Shogun
Denis Kang vs Alan Belcher
Kang came out ready, he hit Belcher with some good strikes, and some take downs, but in the 2nd round, Kang shot in for a takedown and Belcher turned it into a guilotine choke, forcing Kang to tap.
Chris Lytle vs Marcus Davis
Good fight, both guys came out with a great pace in the 1st round, it slowed down in the final 2 rounds, but they gave it their all. Davis won the match by decision.

I bet you were happy to see Henderson win. I was hoping Rua/Coleman would go to a decision. I was pissed it ended with under 30 seconds.

You know I was glad to see Henderson win. Rua vs Coleman was terrible, both guys looked dead tired, Rua looked as gassed as the 44 yr old Coleman

Can't wait for GSP vs. BJ. St. Pierre is my favorite fighter. I hope he rocks him. BJ was talking alot of trash on that ufc unleashed show.

That is going to be an insane fight. I too hope GSP wins, i can't stand Penn, he talks too much trash. I relly hope GSP knocks him out.

Definitely not the best UFC I've seen... Franklin vs Henderson was entertaining but Coleman vs Rua was just a sad display of bad cardio... I know it's easy to say when you're sitting on your couch with a bowl of popcorn and a couple of Coronas but come on...
Like everyone on here so far, I am hoping for a GSP win over Penn for the same reason plus GSP is from my hometown so that's kinda cool too :D

I thought the Franklin/Henderson fight to see who gets to beat up Michael Bisping was excellent! Too bad about the eye-poke at the end. There are pictures of Ace's eye all over the internet.
How many times do you think Mark Coleman has uttered a thank you for not fighting Brock Lesnar? (Rua did nothing to show he's a top contender)
