Zero Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 That's one thing I love about Benson. He stays pretty active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 Most likely, he will have three (four if he is lucky) fights before Pettis fights again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epwar Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 A lot of people dogged on Henderson for decisions, but he was the most active champ when he had the belt. Pettis will have gone 16 months before making his first title defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 FWIW regarding Diego's decision victory, Joe Rogan on his podcast with the awesome Enson Inoue said it was bullshit and only Diego and Diego's family thought Diego won that fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pettis will have gone 16 months before making his first title defense. I will trade three Benson fights for one Pettis fight any day of the week.

Elsalvajeloco Posted June 14, 2014 Author Share Posted June 14, 2014 I don't know man. The Guida and Stephens fights didn't exactly set the world afire either. That's literally half his UFC run that wasn't against Benson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glfpunk Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Benson fights to win a decision not to finish. That's why he's gone to decision 11 times in his career. To me he's not exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glfpunk Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I'm just saying whats enjoyable to me. And don't give me that Dana shit. Bendo plays it safe, moves in and out, doesn't take a ton of risks. Pettis is kind of the opposite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted June 15, 2014 Author Share Posted June 15, 2014 And don't give me that Dana shit. I did and will continue to do it because you can't do anything about it. So what you're saying is you've never seen Benson Henderson fight? So this guy didn't totally slide to the side, hit the Ruddock-on-Dokes Gunjack uppercut, and then hit some insane back take last week? That totally had to be a different fight I was watching. It can't be the same Benson Henderson freely willing to give up his back and neck to grapplers whose only legit shot to beat him is to submit him. Can't be the same guy. This guy is letting people waist cinch him just so he can get the reversal to put them on their back. The guy is playing with his hair 30 seconds in every round while his opponent is trying to knock his head into the sixth row. He doesn't give a shit. I only thought FSW (and every Cibernetico cameo) was this capable of inane argument, but I was sadly mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glfpunk Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 He's not exciting. He fights to win a decision, that's his style. I don't prefer to watch it. You can try to deny that that's his style but you'd be wrong. Keep trying though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
