Have you guys seen the lines for the Strikeforce event? Mayhem Miller's at -2000. Two THOUSAND!

Watch the first round again and take a look at BJs face. BJ clearly did less damage in that round. I agree 50-45 was a bad scoring of the fight, but I could easily give 4 rounds to Edgar. Penn gassed, and thats why he didn't take the fight to the ground. I was really upset when he didn't defend his lightweight title for over 18 months. He had one defense against Sherk after beating Joe Daddy, and than no lightweight contender saw a title shot until Florian.
