      I thought DC was a bit biased towards the wrestler (Usman) and Bisping a bit Biased towards the Striker (Edwards), which is totally understandable. Whenever DC talked about Usman and his skills, Bisping provided the counterargument. Nothing wrong in my book.

    Class act Bisping. I think the analysis was fair. I was rooting for Kamaru but Leon was more successful in the wrestling and landed cleaner shots and as much volume. He was elusive but not running and Kamaru was pressuring not chasing. Great performances. Glorious Champion. Spot on analysis on the spot from your part. And understanding Gaethje and handling his feelings with genuine care and proping him. Class act Bisping.

I scored the fight 3-2 and I could even see 4-1 to Leon WITH my bias being for Kamaru seeing as how he’s from my area. Leon fought a great fight. Not sure what the bias was on Bispings part but Leon definitely won no question

    I felt Leon vs Usman 3 was similar to the 2nd fight of adesanya vs whittaker. The challenger just did not do enough to win decisively. They were close fights but the champion usually gets the nod in those kind of bouts. I actually thought is was going to be a draw because of the grabbing of the fence.

    Justin meant he's just as biased as he claims you and the judges to be. He didn't misspeak more than he contradicted tf out of himself. The only way Leon doesn't win that fight is if it was a draw due to the point reduction. I'd say if you think Usman won then you are more than likely biased on that situation although I haven't rewatched the thing.

    • @tgwnn
      @tgwnn Рік тому +12

      He didn't contradict himself. He just meant that he's 10% (for example) biased towards Kamaru and the judges are 10% biased towards Leon. So if it was a 50-50 fight, for him it's a 60-40 Kamaru fight and for the judges saw it 60-40 Leon. But Gaethje says Bisping is way more biased than the judges, let's say 20%, so for Bisping it's actually 70-30.
      Now, I don't think anyone is biased here except maybe Gaethje :)) but his statements are not contradictory.

      Kamaru claims to represent Nigeria because it's not cool to represent the country you came to for real opportunities and a happy life. Why would "yanks" have Kamaru's back.
      I like Leon better than the guy who represents a place simply because he was born there because that's a racist mentality. The values Kamaru actually reflects with his hard work and success are American values.
      Not recognizing what makes America great is why we're constantly getting our liberties stripped away one by one as the years go by with ridiculous regulation and these representatives who actually hate America and have no idea what it stands for.

      @@mrfatuchi Honestly, these fence grabs, short grabs, glove grabs, eye pokes, etc happen way more frequently than you think. I can think of the Oliveira vs Gaethje fight where Charles held on tight to Justin's glove during a scramble. There was even a GSP fight where he held on to his opponent's shorts while taking him down. Let's not forget McGregor desperately holding on to gloves, shorts and fence to avoid being taken down. Fighting is dirty, and fighters do all they can to get a superior position, as long as they can get away with it, especially when it is something high stakes, like a championship. The consequences are getting a warning from the ref, and you can't try doing the same thing again or you risk getting penalized and your points deducted. In the heat of the moment, you have to make a choice between losing the position, and potentially the rest of the fight, or getting a warning or penalty from the referee. Its not clean or honorable, but you'd be hard pressed to find such high stakes fights that go cleanly.

      @@rohitchaoji I have seen almost all those but none of them as blatant as what Leon did he really grabbed on in crucial moment and prevented what could have been tide turning takedown. It was exact same takedown attempt that Jones took Gane down and won. I dunno they need to sanction these things way more. Edit: Actually just had a great idea they need to put a transparent screen like foil type in front of the fence to prevent any grabbing at all.

      Fiziev clearly won the first 2 so based on the scoring criteria of judging each round individually, he should have won, Justin got a lucky decision and he's being a bitch on top.
