I picked Shane Roller by decision
Very explosive performance by Henderson. Roller was out.
R:2 A:3- S:3 T:2
i would of liked to see the fight go farther but it was definetely an explosive 1:41 seconds! the ground game woulda been good too. ben henderson is a purple belt in brazilian jiu jitsu and has been underestimated in every fight so far. i’d like to see them both fight again…
i woulda liked to see it go more than 1:41 seconds but it was an explosive 1:41! shane caught him pretty good and almost locked him up in a guillotine but ben somehow escaped. i’m not surprised though. he’s a purple belt in brazilian jiu jitsu and has been underestimated in every fight so far. once he got free he caught shane with a huge blow that rocked him all the back into the cage and his eyes rolled back. then it was continuous pounding until it was stopped! there was no recovery. i woulda liked to see some ground game though. a world class wrestler against a purple belt in jiu jitsu woulda been interesting…
