Jorge Gurgel vs. Mark Hominick

Round 1: Not a very exciting first round. I'd probably lean with Gurgel due to aggression, plus he landed some effective leg kicks. Beyond that, the entire round was on the feet with neither guy landing anything clean. But again, Gurgel was busier so I'd probably go 10-9 for Gurgel.

Round 2: A little more exciting, but nothing really big happening. Close round, probably Hominick in this one, 10-9. Entire round was on the feet again, with Gurgel landing some leg kicks. Twice in the round Hominick caught Gurgel's leg and sweeped his other foot, putting Gurgel on his back. Hominick landed a decent combo with the hands at one point, other than that just a lot of pitter-patter punching going on.

Round 3: This round was good. Tough to score though. I'd lean towards Gurgel, but it was close up until the end, slight edge to Gurgel, but Hominick finished stronger. I'd go 10-9 Gurgel, giving him the fight 29-28, but according to Joe Rogan he thinks it'll be 29-28 for Hominick. Judges cards are coming up in a moment. After the horn sounded, both guys dropped down and starting doing push-ups to prove they weren't tired. Should have used more of that energy in the actual fight.

Mark Hominick def. Jorge Gurgel via Unanimous Decision (29-28, 29-28, 29-28) after 3 Rounds.

Gurgle should have won this fight. Not only did he press the action the entire fight, his shots seemed to do way more damage. Hominick only gave gurgel a couple of counter shots each round, while gurgel gave him not stop action. Plus Hominick ran away from jorge like 3-4x, scared to go anywhere near a clinch or takedown. I agree with the above scoring, and should have gone to jorge.
