Am I the only one who thought Condit was unlucky?

Was a close fight, but Hendricks' takedowns probably gave him the scoring edge.

Every time he took him down Condit dominated him on the floor.

I thought he won, but only just. Apparently he has damaged his hand, hence the greater amount of take-downs. Not sure he can beat GSP.

I can't see anyone in the weight division beating GSP, he can be at times a bit boring but he identifies a weakness and just exploits it, Diaz was never in that fight, he got smashed in the stand up, and on the ground he had no chance. Hendricks could beat him but it will take a lucky punch, the same way Matt Sera beat him all those years ago...

He got a Mark Hunt left.

Weirdest thing at UFC 158 was one of the fighters entering to a Phil Collins song.

Not wrong, I reckon every punch he threw connected, Dylan's right eye just got smashed from his jab alone

Yeah very nasty, when he was laying face down saying he couldn't move it was bad, love Dana's comment that they don't even want to clap when he knocks someone out!

Hall can be a huge star in the sport. Interesting finale coming up, with his opponent having a very good ground game. Great TUF season!

Agreed, can't believe how well behaved Chael was. Also may have served as a handy PR exercise to get people back on the Jones train.
I sincerely hope Chael can shock The world on April 28th and I think he should ride in on his Harley :)

After Sundays finale I'm sure we'll see Chael get into self promoting mode in the lead up to their fight, is he a realistic chance?

No chance if he tries to pull some dumb spinning backfist move.
