I thought it was a fair 29-28 win for CB. I'm glad two out of three of the judges got it right and gave him the win.
I think the dark knight and I are two of the very few CB fans on this forum. (Where is he at anyways?) His fight against Miller was an ugly win, but I think this one redeems him a little bit. He was getting rocked left and right by Miller which made his chin look weak, but he was able to take several shots in this fight and his chin seemed to hold up fine. After that uninspiring win against Miller, he needed a decent win to get back on track, and considering he was the underdog on this forum against Sarafian and was expected by many solid posters to be knocked out or submitted early, this win will do just fine.
I am a big C.B Fan I want him to be more aggressive in his fights, but keep his cool. I think he should welcome Kennedy to the UFC
As for his performance tonight, the first round wasn't great. Second he took some shots and gave some back, and looked good near the end of the round. third he was a little tired, but pulled it out and did well. 29-28 was fair imo
In terms of people thinking he has a non existent chin. Getting rocked by Jason Miller doesn't make you look too good. Besides, I said "a little bit". Not a total redemption.
Let's just say he looked a lot better in this fight than he did against Miller. Many people thought he was going to lose both fights.
We'll have to agree to disagree. I thought he looked alright, not great, but not terrible in my opinion. I figured I'd be in the minority.
He spent the first round letting Sarafian tee off on his face. Not even attempting to do anything about it. That's awful. Fan or not you should see that about him.
Fortunately, fights aren't scheduled for one five minute round in the UFC. If they were, Anderson Silva wouldn't be the UFC middleweight champion right now. Did you get the "a little bit" note? Acting as if I thought he looked great. I'm just happy that his chin held up, and he looked better than he did against Miller. That's the point I'm making, and I personally believe it to be true. That fight against Miller was hard to watch as a CB fan.
I thought he got better and looked alright in the second and third round, and won the fight decisively. Not a great performance (like I've implied), but not a bad one. Yes, he looked terrible in the first round, but at least he showed that his chin wasn't terrible and made a decent comeback after that. Surely, you'd think a fan of his would appreciate that. That flurry at the end of the second round when he had Sarafian hurt had me pumped after watching a rocky first round.
I know, I know, it's rare to see a fan of a guy a lot of people can't stand and doesn't seem to have a lot of skills, but it happens.
You are entitled to your own opinion, I am entitled to mine.
Good job CB!
