Official Statement from Matt Hamill

I would like to thank everyone for their unbelievable support. I fought my heart out in London and feel I should have won the fight. The outpouring of support from people all over the world has touched my heart. It validates my performance to myself and that means as much as a win to me. I think MMA is a great sport and I don't believe in any kind of a fix. The two judges that scored the win for Bisping obviously need to re-evaluate the way they score a fight. You can't win a fight when you run for three rounds. They need to study the criteria for scoring an MMA fight: effective striking, grappling, takedowns, aggression and control. Bisping did none of that in my opinion. The UFC has the best MMA in the world and I am proud to be a part of it. I will be fighting in the UFC for a long time. Thanks again to all my fans, especially to all the English fans who came up to me after the fight to tell me I was the winner. I will be back in the octagon very soon and promise to fight my heart out like I always have.

Matt "The Hammer" Hamill

At least Hamill handeled it with respect and sportsmanship. I love this kid for that. He could've came out all sour and totally been a punk about it.. I think he will go far in the heart of the fans... at least americans.. I think of him as Randy's deaf little brother kind of... haha

I have a sinking suspicion that dana's gonna be playing that sound byte of bis tellin hamil to "go back to wrestling" everytime they advertise his fights on TV to stir up fan interest/hatred towards the guy.....

that shit stirs the pot

hahaha yes. The same way they showed Cro Cop getting KTFO by Gonzaga 1000 times during the UFC 77 promo. I was watching that thinking, "goddamn."

I heard Bisping was acting like a real jackass backstage. He was challenging reporters to fight him

Bisping vs Wandy should be next fight

realkarateblackbelt · « **Reply #8 on:** September 12, 2007, 07:38:16 PM »

I'm not sure why the guy is so cocky.
He has the boxing skills of a 4 year old girl.
I think he's an embarrassment to the sport.

actually he showed the most class on the ultimate fighter which is surprising for the way he acted after that fight with hamil,I think he just knew he got beat and maybe heard some boo's in the crowd when the decision was anounced and went into kind of a defensive mode....

maybe the pressure of fightin in england just ate him up that night,either way I'm no longer a fan of his and more into following Hamil at this point.....

definetly called this one wrong when I said hamil did'nt belong in there with him with my prediction

i agree with alot of what you said.
at first i liked bisping and didnt like hamil..but after seeing bispings piss poor attitude after the fight and seeing and hearing how hamil acted i am now a bisping hater and like hamil.

before the fight i also didnt think hamil belonged in that ring with bisping. but he surprised alot of people by coming out and trading punches with(and beating) bisping.

Blinky you and Geo both have truth, but I do have to correct you on the fact that Bisbing really didn't throw to many punches. Hamill did but Bisbing ran..

No bluto what I was saying is that People already said who they thought won the fight in the thread about the fight.. I just didn't see the need for another thread to vote.. You could have easily put this in the thread about the fight...

I'm not complaining I am just stating that this thread was pointless. do you have to argue everytime someone tries to suggest something to you.. You act like a child, no wonder why you have no job..... That deals with people face to face..

Bluto · « **Reply #20 on:** September 13, 2007, 09:03:42 AM »

make no sense to merge the thread with that one. two different topics.
