Prediction: correct Voelker   wrong Decision  

You wanted Roger Bowling, who had that Urijah Faber look and aggressive fighting style, to prove that his loss to Voelker was a fluke and turn into a star. But this is what you get when you try and push a storyline that isn't backed up by the reality of what a fighter can deliver in the cage.

And of course on the telecast now they had to talk about the "incredible resurgence" of Bobby Voelker and how Woodley, Daley, and the other welterweights need to watch their backs. No offense to Voelker, but Daley and Woodley don't need to watch their backs.

Jeez! I sense some bitterness in that post.

BTW, if not for that hail-mary knee, Bowling was taking that to the house.

In the replay you could see Bowlings girlfriend running around with her hands on her head when he was getting TKO'd. I LOL'd.

I listened to the Roger Bowling interview on Beatdown at sherdog, he states that he asked for this fight.

I'm not surprised he asked for the fight. He's actually more talented than Voelker but Voelker was just able to catch him with a greatly timed knee.

Old thread.. but yeah... of course he would ask.  He is more talented/athletic.... but like c'mon.  He is not being brought up right.
