Don't know why the announcers were so surprised at Guida. Herb Dean has refereed many of his fights. It was obvious they wanted Thomson to win. I've been watching Guida forever and he has always been wide open every round. Congrats Clay! You deserve this title!

I don't think I've ever seen a more biased set of announcers. Guida absolutely destroyed Thomson. Won every round easily. And the whole fight, the announcers kept talking about Thomson and how great he was. Were they blind? Guida was amazing. Thomson spent 5 rounds on his back getting beat on. And the announcers had nothing to say about Guida--other than they kept expecting him to get tired.

Maybe the worst commentators ever. One example among many. At the end of the 2nd round, they re-watch the illegal kick from Josh's: they need two takes on slow-motion to say it was illegal! Another example. At the end of the 4th round, the most pathetic of the 3 amigos says "This fight could be 2-2". Sure, he adds "I don't see it that way" but it's wayyyy too late man: you needed 4 rounds to come to that? But these commentators "wannabees" have a purpose, as they give us a life lesson: it's possible to inflict pain to someone just with words without even one insult!!!

The Strikeforce announcers were always gobbling on J. Thompson's sack whenever he was in the octagon. They talk about him like he's the 2nd coming of Jesus and act like he was the baddest man at any weight. I listen to his podcast sometimes and i followed his fighting career only because i was a fan of mma, he's alright but he's historically never been great at anything despite having endless resources.
