It's still funny to watch the entire crowd at UFC 72 boo Michael Bisping after they announced him the winner...
That was the first time i ever came on forums was after that fight... it's still odd that pretty much every poll on pretty much every site had Hamill winning at around 89-90%... i can't think of another controversial decision that was that unanimous in favor of one fighter. 90% is pretty unreal.

Well we do see the Leben/Bisping match again in a few mins. for the life of me i still cant figure out why LEben stopped with the leg-kicks, he was winning the fight if he just kept up the leg-kicks but instead i think his brawler nature stepped in and tried to get a KO.

I happened to catch that fight tonight - I think Leben had a broken nose, or was bleeding a fair bit - it probably shook him up enough that he went with what was more familiar to him, which is brawling.

I have little to no doubt Bisping won the decision.

Same here.
It was tied going into the 3rd round and all Hamill did in that round was get a couple of TD's and did nothing while they were on the ground. Bisping landed the only significant offense in the round with two clean right hands, a knee and a partially blocked head kick. I would like to know why he didn't try a body shot or two when Hamill was just standing in place covering his head all the time. You would think his corner would have picked up on that. At least Franklin's did.

I think you guys are completely 100% missing the point of what the comment was about. It wasn't supposed to be a debate about the fight, but the fact that rarely has one fight been so one sided on how people scored the outcome.
A better debate or better opinion to add would be fights that equal the level of how one sided a fighting community has been regarding a decision.
