#ufc #bensonhenderson #frankieedgar #mma
UFC 150: Henderson vs. Edgar II was a mixed martial arts event held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship on August 11, 2012, at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado.
Henderson defeated Edgar in the main event of UFC 144 on Feb. 26, 2012, winning the UFC lightweight title via unanimous decision.
The 155-pound elites put on a five-round affair Saturday night that showed technical prowess and tremendous resolve.
Henderson, who won by split decision, has a lot on his plate. He won a very controversial fight over Edgar, and he has to defend against Nate Diaz next.
He is a modest champion and won a modest fight. Plain and simple.
It was a great fight. It wasn't an all-time great, but it was definitely worth the build up and the money. Edgar and Henderson, as well as the rest of the performers, put on a more-than-modest show.
Tony Weeks scored the bout 49-46 for Edgar, giving him the final four rounds. Mark Van Tine and Dave Hagen had it at 48-47 for Henderson, as both gave him rounds 1, 3, and 4.
Henderson clearly won round one, peppering Edgar with solid leg kicks and getting the former champion into a tight guillotine over the final 20 seconds of the round. Edgar just as clearly won round two, dropping Henderson with a big right hand and then controlling him on the ground for much of the stanza.
Then things got a little tighter.
Round three was one of the closest rounds seen in a UFC championship in quite some time, with both men active but neither doing major damage. In rounds four and five, both fighters scored, with Edgar scoring with strikes off the breaks and also ducking many of Henderson's strikes and answering with counters. But Henderson's strikes landed more heavily.
Henderson (17-2), who had then won 14 of his past 15 fights, felt he earned the decision.
"You always have a concern whenever it goes to a decision," Henderson said. "Frankie's tough. We all know how tough Frankie is. ... They always bring it in rematches."
Though some also felt Edgar (14-3-1) earned the decision, he's now faced with the reality that he's dropped back-to-back fights to the champion. A drop to 145 pounds might be necessary, but that wasn't on his mind Saturday.
"It don't matter," Edgar said. "I thought I brought it to him. I don't know if I can watch that fight. It don't matter. I'm upset, man. What are you gonna do?"
