No way was that along the lines of Bisping/Hammil. I thought Wren won the first but it wasn't exactly dominant. With the exception of the one flurry where he tagged Nelson a few times, the round was pretty even. Wren was throwing alot more punches but only a few actually landed. Nelson was landing alot of shots too.
Nelson definetly won the second round and I have no doubt that he would have taken the third (I think there should have been a third) too.
I'm also curious to see what Nelson does in the semi-finals. He said in interviews that he was trying to do just enough to win the prelims and quarterfinals so that he'd be in good shape for the semi-final. I really want to see more from Nelson though, I mean he was kicking Arlovski's ass on the ground until the ref stood the fight up way to quickly and Nelson got KO'ed.
As far as Dana's comments, well Dana has zero crediblity for me. Sometimes I want to know what world Dana lives in. Wren is dominant in one flurry for the round and suddenly he's kicking Roy's ass for the entire round. This is the same guy who says two guys throwing bombs for thirty seconds then gassing and looking like shit for the rest of the fight was an awesome fight.
