    To be honest i ahve never seen a bad WEC event. I thought Frank Mir did a great job commentating.

    And i scored the main event the other way around to be judges, Ceronne should be pissed

    Agreed, both are a given when wec gets mentioned usually , Frank is excellent at talking through the technical bits as usual.

    Thought Cerrone won the 1st,4th and 5th rounds with Henderson the other two.
    As with most judges the takedowns are given more emphasis on the judges score cards. Same with Jeff Curran vs Mizugaki in last WEC thought Curran edged the decision.
    Credit where credits due Henderson got out of some good submission attempts.
    Wish a network would get this over here.

    Amazing main event. How Ben Henderson did not submit is a mystery to me.

    Mir i think is a good commentator.

    Not sure if this has been mentioned elsewhere but just a quick heads up to everyone that the main event is on ufc.com and wec.com and it is awesome. Probably my fight of the year. WEC has had a great year in terms of top quality fights. Everyone should really check it out.
