...OH, ONE MORE THING - PLEASE BOOKMARK US & VISIT DAILY!
Dominick Cruz retained his WEC Bantamweight Championship on Wednesday night at WEC 50, but as the scorecards were read out it seemed that things remain to be settled between him and Joseph Benavidez.
The rematch of their WEC 42 "Fight of the Night" affair had much more on the line, as well as two added rounds, and both fighters battled for the full 25 minutes. But neither made a convincing case for a victory in this fight.
Cruz took a split decision with scores of 47-48, 48-47 and 49-46, but with the exception of the fourth round which he clearly earned, the rest of the fight could have been perceived either way...
