Brad Pickett raises his fists in his corner. He seems confident.
Diego Sanchez looks very relaxed.
This is the first time they meet inside the cage
Diego Sanchez is the better fighter in my opinion. It would be an upset if he loses today.
The referee of the bout is Dan Miragliotta.

This was an unfortunate draw for Brad. He has a ton of potential here, but Diego is about as good as LWs get, and pretty much fully developed as well. He walked through future-star Brad with relative ease here.

But still, Ross dominated him for 3 rounds, knocked him down several times, and lost. HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT WORK?!?!?!

I dunno... It's like I still can't figure out how they scored the D'Alelio/Murphy fight in Murphy's favor. I've watched it several times now watching Murphy specifically and I still don't see how it was scored for Murphy. So I know exactly what you mean.

I don't remember there being actual knock downs in that one though. Like, if two people are both striking and one knocks the other down...does that not mean they are doing better? And when they do it more than once? And when the other guy is missing most of his punches? Yeah...

One would think they are, but Murphy got 2 or 3 really shitty takedowns right up against the cage and kind dragged Sarah to the ground sloppily and Sarah pulled the switch on her within 10 seconds and was pounding her in the side of the head atleast twice. lol It was almost like Sarah was letting her take her down so she could gain a different advantage. But yah, the missed punches are mind boggling too.

But then again, we've seen some killer upsets come from those.
