agreed. Hendo doesn't and never has sold shyt/been a draw. Tito VS Page would def sell more.

Why you say that? Hendo isn't a bigger name then Tito

Not to the point where people would order the PPV. Plus, Hendo is actually a good and relevant fighter in his division. Unlike tito, who has looked awful for a long while now (minus his Bader performance). There was 0 buzz surrounding Page/tito, there would be at least some hype surrounding a fight with Hendo.

You are speaking from a knowledgeable fan perspective. Of course a hendo/Page fight from a quality standpoint would be much better but Tito is a much bigger name to the casual

Georges should likely call it a day while he has his health and hasn't taken that massive beating that seems on the horizon. He's not head and shoulders above his division anymore and Hendricks was shockingly starting to look a lot like the guy that was gonna make him look old tonight

Sucks that I'm gonna have to go to work Monday saying "what had happened was" before I say anything about the fights to anyone :laugh:

dope fight. Disagree with the decision. It was a fun night though. I can't argue with the casuals. Hopefully it will be peaceful in here.

Just saw on FS1 post show every media site gave Hendricks the fight. Same as with Lyoto VS Davis. Same judges that gave Davis the fight too.

Silva should finish him off in the first round if he's healthy

Dana really is coming off more "Dana like" than usual with this. I know he's got a company to promote and a lot of money to make off a rematch but GSP would not be some kind of villian if he called it a day. Sure some fans will call him names, they're doing that anyway but he has a future to preserve.


Georges is 32 and doesn't seem to want to stick around too long and start taking those inevitable ass whoopings that happen when reflexes slow, age creeps up and hunger subsides. He had no answers for Hendricks other than the point game clearly.


Sticking around at this point and he's going to get the true Fedor v Big Foot treatment from Hendricks next time.
