Randy got the belt back

Recommended Posts

Schooled Sylia big time, knocked his big ass down with the first punch. its good to see someone wear the belt that is really going to fight for it;)

his take down skills were absolutely amazing too, not too shabby for an old guy:P

How about Rand V Arlovski, that would be an awesome fight. I'd also love to watch him hand Jackson his ass. Rampage wouldn't stand a chance against Randy, he's not in the same class of fighters.

Saw it. Awesome fight. I do think the judges scoring was crap though. Randy was owning him all 3 rounds and Sylvia was just trying to keep from getting KO'd or choked out the entire fight. Which is why when the judges scores were posted I was like WTF, what fight did you just watch?

I watched the same Randy, Tim fight you did:P

and you're right, Randy dominated the fight all 5 rounds, Sylvia never scored a clean hit and his takedown defense was horrible. I didn't catch the scores though, I was watching the fight at Hooters and I give my buddy hand bouncing during the fights and right before they read the scores a fight broke out in the parking lot. why does every piece of shit think they're such a badass right after they wach UFC??

All the judges scored the fight 10(randy) to 9(sylvia) across the board as if it was that close a fight. I think the judges passed the crack pipe around during the fight.

That's basically how the fight scoring always works though, if you don't win the round you get a 9 unless you REALLY sucked or made no effort to fight. Sylvia might have been dominated the whole fight but he did get in there for a few exchanges on his feet. And even though his performance on the ground was nothing more than him desperately trying to not be submitted Randy still really couldn't get a good GNP going nor could he submit him, that's why he got 9's as opposed to something less.

I agree Sylvia got a few good licks in but I still think that an accurate scoring for sylvia's performance should of been a 7 or 8.

It's not all too often you see anyone get less than a 9, I agree that his performance was far less than inspiring but his defense on the ground put a stop to Randy's GNP. I think that's what got him the 9's.

Either way, Sylvia's done as the champ and there's finally someone deserving at the top.

These fights are scored on the 10 point must system... round winner gets 10, loser gets 9 unless .... I don't know the exact rules for having a point deducted but...I think the only time I have seen less than a 9 was when there was a foul during the round or if the fighter was really backpedaling and not standing and fighting....and I think it was David Loiseau against Rich Franklin where I saw that happen.
