[TheLukieBaby]

39-37 Gil , but it is close

 

[TheLukieBaby]

My final scorecard is 48-47 Gil - who knows the announcers seem to think Benson won...

Benson Henderson gets a gift Spilt Decision.

might have to rewatch it , but it seemed to me that rd1 2 and 5 Melendez just flat outworked him minus leg strikes. It all comes down to how you watch a fight

i had melendez winning rounds 1 and 5

those power leg strikes had to count for something on the cards.

 

[TheLukieBaby]

They did , but leg kicks don't work on a 3:1 ratio meaning 3 punches equal one punch

In a normal fight I could maybe see givin it to Gil, but he didnt do anything to really take the belt so I have to agree with the decision. Close fight to call though
