Matt Hamill Vs. Michael Bisping at UFC 75 London

Am I the only one or did Matt Hamill get robbed of a decision? I was very shocked at the outcome of this match, so shocked in fact that I have to publicly state my opinion. I know that sometimes people see things in a different light then I do but maybe the judges were watching a different fight then I was. I haven’t read or seen what other people are saying about this bout but this clearly looks like they were giving it to the hometown boy. I must admit that coming into the arena playing Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the USA” was probably not a great way to win friends and influence people but you know Hamill is deaf, maybe he didn’t know what music was playing, so I’m not going to hold it against him. Hamill clearly stalked Bisping in the ring, got in lots more punches then Bisping, took Bisping down continuously.. what more do you have to do to win? I’m thinking that we need to do random vision testing on judges. We don’t need to have the scandals and problems that have plagued boxing for so many years happen to MMA. I’m not saying that any skullduggery took place but man how embarrassing for the UFC and for the fans of London. I’m sure they don’t want to win that way. Bisping is even a good fighter, just had a bad night (or in this case a good night). Bisping’s entrance music was “London Calling.” I think we need to call London and find out if the judges were in the building that night or did they “call in” their decision.

9-15-09 . . . no matter how many times i watch this fight it is VERY VERY clear who won not only who won who dominated MATT HAMILL. . . oh well dan henderson made up for wat bisping deserved
Just saw this tonight (11/13/09). Hamill was robbed. I told my wife that a major upset just happened and then they gave it to Bisping. In the two years that I have been watching UFC, this was the first time I saw a true robbery. I'm guessing the judges were Brits.
