Here's my favourite quote of the article, "Having them fight again in a place where an official athletic commission will oversee the affairs is the only way to remove the stench surrounding UFC 75." Yeah, the f'ing stench!

I'm curious to see how many people will Boo Bisping when he steps into the octagon for the rematch.

lmao, good answer. Good news about the rematch, but I was kind of hoping (thought it's a stretch) that something was going to be done about the poor call on the first place. =/ |

So to me this article only "justifies" the judges decision.
I personally feel the fight was a 29-28 fight, whether it went to Hamil or Bisping, I don't feel it was 30-27 by any means.

no way. 3rd round was hamill's. 4 takedowns = points. i think bisping took the second round, barely. it was definitely hamills fight. hamill got robbed |

Man he acted like a douche even in the post press conference. He needs to take a few lessons from Rampage when it comes to getting contraversial decisions. When the Judges annouced Rampage as the winner over Ninja Rua you didn't see him parading like a jackass, getting PO'ed at reporters, and flipping people off.

That's BS. I bet you didn't even watch the fight. Round 2 must have been won by Hamill. Bisping didn't do anything in round 2 except run away from Hamill. |

Good there will be a rematch. Although we all know who won the first meeting. But as far as Dana. Do you think we are all stupid and believe you that you dont care. You just had the worse possible incident happen to the UFC. Maybe it was having unqualified judges but the majority of people reading articles in sports papers will believe it if they reference UFC to Boxing. Imagine the front page of a sporting magazine. Is this the new Don King?

What if Bisping drops to 185? What if the same thing happens again? Each guy should go their separate way, but this could be a huge money maker
