Watch the fight and the Johnson/Ray fight when you get a chance. I think you'll change your mind on both of them. I can see where someone could make a case that the decision could have went the other way, but they were no where near robbery vicinity.

 

Ware's base is boxing and he throws straight punches, so he was near the target even when he was missing. Ware landed most effectively with his body shots, but his punches to the head were rarely on target. Duquensoy's head movement was pretty good for an mma fighter. He needs that because he puts himself right in the opponents range and sets his feet to throw basically the same combo over and over again that ends with the leg kick. Ware didnt have anything for him until Duquensoy slowed down in the 3rd.

 

I really like Ware, I think he got a shit deal in the UFC with the three opponents he fought. I think they'll cut him after this loss, but I could see him making his way back after a few wins at regionals. He'd actually be a good guy to see on DWTCS this summer.

Okay pundits seem to be in agreement also - weird how difficult it can be to follow when youre at the event! I was so shocked when the result was announced haha

 

A night full of upsets though, more underdogs won than favourites?

It's deffo harder to see when you're there in person, also it depends on how far away you are and whether its a cage or ring too. I'm disappointed I opted not to go to this card though man, but I was shook to roll the dice. How was it in person?

is Gunnar the only guy with some seriously decent ground-game at SBG -_-

Duquesnoy v ware was so close ... but Ware should have won the fight (it was close though)
but then again all those leg kicks must have done the trick with the judges and he being kind of the European hometown guy

And Danny Henry should have gotten a POTN
