What a mess this is:

Quote:The controversial decision in the Demetrious Johnson vs. Ian McCall fight at UFC on FX 2 has gotten even more controversial. Scores for the fight were read in favor of Johnson as a majority decision, but there was confusion initially in the cage.

Ring announcer Bruce Buffer proclaimed it a majority decision for Johnson, but announced that both Johnson and McCall had taken cards of 29-28 in the fight. It was then reported that Johnson had two cards of 29-28 with a 29-29 card for the majority.

However, UFC President Dana White revealed after the event that the Australian governing body for the fight screwed up the scorecards. The fight was actually a draw, with Johnson taking a 29-28 scorecard and two judges scoring the fight a draw at 28-28 and 29-29, respectively. Had that been read correctly initially, the two would have engaged in a contracted "sudden death" round to determine the victor.

Now, however, the two fighters will be put into a rematch to determine an opponent for Joseph Benavidez, who decisively won his tournament fight against Yasuhiro Urushitani.

UPDATE: Edited with the correct scores of the draw. One judge gave the first round a 10-10, then split the last two for the 29-29, another gave Johnson rounds one and two, giving McCall a 10-8 third round for a 28-28, and the final judge scored it in Johnson's favor 29-28.

As the PM you were all sent stated this:
UFC Openweight Predictions Grand Prix

UFC on FX:Alves v Kampmann
Friday/Saturday 2am & given the event was held in your adopted homeland of Australia, along with a week of promotion & domestic media coverage your excuse is feeble & will not be tolerated. This is the second time you've annoyed me this weekend, don't make a habit of it!!!

All you need to do is ask groundnpound how to go about it should you want to appear in front of.
Mr Justice Mitchell

Thought McCall was robbed the other night. The least he deserved was a draw or the sudden victory round thing!!! He won the fight clearly in my eyes. He's a proper character aswell...

Unbelievable error from Thiago Alves in the main event. The fight was won with 40 secs left. If he'd kept striking Kampmann the decision win was in the bag. A tko wasn't out of the question either... Kampmann was in trouble. Couldn't believe he went for the take down and got himself submitted. He looked good though and made Kampmann look average. Like i've always said, if he can cut out the odd rush of blood/mental lapse, he could be in business.

Crazy decision to go for a takedown.

glad it was so low scoring on the predictions this week given that i totally forgot to do them
