I dont know why Ben was a heavy favorite. I just seen Dos Anjos rip through Cerrone.

Fair trade for the Illinois win today tho

Did that pass Dillashaw vs Barao 1 for upset of the year?

It was kinda hard to see from that camera angle, but Bendo was definitely hurt. Big John could have given him a little more time, but I'm not that mad at the stoppage. RDA striking looked really good and he was able to capitalize on Bendo early in the fight.

No, Dillashaw was a bigger underdog imo and the way he dominated Barao was really impressive. Plus Barao was the champion.

Barao got tenderized, pasteurized and all the other ized's in all areas of that fight. Bendo got caught being borderline laxed in a fist fight and paid dearly for it tonight.

This. I don't deny Bendo was rocked(twice) but hes a tough dude who deserves some lee way. I think Edgar dropped him like that several times in that second fight and he was allowed to recover. Maybe Big John was at an angle(look like he was on the side with Bendo back towards him) but I still think the stoppage was bad

Crazy to see him KO'd tho, Bendo has a tough chin. That left hook made him go limp
