If by freak accident the guy had died from the knockout hit, that would've been a simple tragedy that's expected to happen in a sport like this on rare occasions. If he had died from the second, I would hope Henderson would get at least a civil suit for it. It was ridiculous.

I totally agree. Everyone keeps talking about how unprofessional Brock was after his fight and how it makes MMA and UFC look bad. I think that the second elbow that Henderson through was at the pinnacle of unprofessianal. He easily could have killed Bisping with that elbow. Henderson is a professional fighter and has knocked many people out. He KNEW Bisping was out when he his the floor from the first punch.

Are you kidding me? It's easy to say that when you're watching the highlights in slow motion but once Hendo got airborne there was no stopping him. In addition there was nothing illegal about his actions since fighters are to keep fighting until the referee stops the fight.

Last but not least, I'm aware of what Hendo said in the post-fight interview with Joe Rogan but it's quite obvious Hendo wasn't even aware of his actions til he saw the big screen himself and said what he said to add fuel to the fire of his Bisping feud.
