Yes officer, my name is Victoria Sonnen...berg
The worst part of the night was that the worst person had the dopest finish. Though to be fair Samman's probably nowhere near as bad as he was portrayed on TUF.

Who doesn't.

I seem to remember an instance where Robbie stunned Johnny with a punch, but nothing major and can't remember which exact round. I think 2?

I wonder how hard it is for Johnny to suck it down right now and play the nice guy haha. He really shouldn't though, squeaky wheel gets the grease.

I'm getting nothing at the moment. Any cliff notes of Hendricks' bitching would be appreciated until then.

He's being pretty classy, actually.

"I'm not gonna make any excuses, I'm not gonna take anything away from Robbie Lawler. He did his job. I just thought I won... I tried to knock him out, but that guy's got a jaw. I've got a jaw, and when that happens you kinda have to leave it to the judges..."

Hendricks is doing a complete 180 on his thoughts on the Georges DEC, and seeing as this one was considerably worse, that's pretty cool to see.

No.

Yeah I didn't like Rory at all for most of his UFC career but it's hard to argue against everything he's done since the Robbie fight. The Robbie fight was fun and it eventually led to Robbie Lawler UFC Champion, he showed a lot of heart in the Maia fight, systematically stifled Woodley in every aspect (but probably should have pushed more for the finish), and then had a great KO against Tarec.

He also doesn't appear as serial killer-ish as he used to be. I think he's finally left the gym and experienced a little bit of life.

I'll qualify this by saying that I was watching at a BWW and drinking heavily, but I thought Robbie won that easily. Hendricks did dick all. Also GSP would style over both of the fighters we saw tonight if he ever comes back.

I don't know about that bro. 5 was clearly Robbie I thought. Anything other than that was close as gently caress. I scored it 4-1 for Johnny and I was rooting hard for Lawler.

The Ellenberger fight was bad but the Woodley fight was a clowning similar to the Penn match, except in the Penn match Rory was acting like a fool. In the Woodley fight he just shut down everything from Woodley and beat him up for 3 rounds.

I was way more upset at Woodley sidelining Condit for a year only to lose like that to Rory, rather than being mad at Rory for outclassing Woodley for 3 rounds.

I also went into the decision despising how Hendricks fought, but I had it 48-47 Hendricks, and dejectedly waiting for the inevitable. I thought it would be UD, I perked up happy when Lawler won the first judge and it was being announced as a SD, but when I heard 49-46, I went "oh fuuuYEEEESSS!!!!"
