Shogun was robbed last night

[ttypewhite]

I am convinced, Dana White is the new Don King After that fight it looked like Dana talked to Rogan not to add fuel about the decsion, cause Rogan wanted to say something, you could tell. But looked like he was holding back. The dragon was slayed plain and simple. I was never so pissed about a UFC decsion like this before. Shogun diid all the damage, and pressed the fight. What a disgraceful call. Boooooooooooooooooooooo

I didnt see the shogun fight yet, but I seen it happen when Matt Hammel destroyed Bisbing and still lost in a horrible split desicion. Everyone on the UFC boards were outraged, but the UFC never commented on it. It made me sick, I couldnt watch the UFC for a while after that. It sucks to see someone get robbed.

Im a big fan of both guys but I was shocked at the decision, the UFC really needs new judges because Shogun clearly won that fight. I was watching it with some friends and everyone was SHOCKED when they announced Machida won the fight.

ya maybe

He might have been the aggressor but i've never seen a title fight Given away. You gotta earn it. The small amount of damage and the fact that the champ was never in any real trouble is enough to argue that he DEFENDED his title.
he didn't have to Beat Shogun just defend his title.

I agree 100% with you guys that Shogun won as far as the score cards. In my opinion I would have a hard time giving him the title on a fight that went to the cards like that. Thats why its nice when to win by KO or submission. Then there is never a question who won.

If that was the case then Quinton Jackson should still have his belt when he fought Forrest.
Machida had bruised ribs, swollen red thighs and a busted lip. He limped back to the dressing room with help. Machida was in serious trouble, cause he had no legs to offer any offense with near the last couple of rounds, all he could do was defend. Shogun definitely earned that belt. That's why you score round by round. The MMA boards have been lit with a lot of pissed off people that didn't agree with the call.

Dana is the Don King of MMA. I agree 110% that if Machida didnt lose then Rampage sure as hell didnt. Hell Rampage dropped him early in that fight BAD with a nasty upper cut and almost finished him and STILL lost the round on the judges score cards. How in the hell does that happen??

Shogun could have did more to "take" the fight but Im sure he felt he didnt have to put himself in any more danger as the leg/body kicks were scoring well and at will. Im am a believer that you have to BEAT the champ convincing to take the belt. This is the kind of crap you run into when you dont finish a guy and especially the champ.

I watched and was shocked at the decision. But if read Dana's lips correctly he walked up behind Shogun and said "you got ****ed".

Just read that Dana was not happy with the decision and he is trying to get a rematch set as soon as possible.
