hes a good fighter,but he doesn't reach yet the class of great fighters such as fedor emelianenko,jon jones and anderson silva.
Benson is one of my favorite fighters, so it was cool to see him win with a finish and not have it go to the judges. I think that he's extremely solid and showed it in the fight, I just want to see him learn some techniques to get some heavier hits. He can be awesome and has a natural ability and sees openings that most other fighters don't...He just needs to get more finishes.
Ben Henderson's performance gave me a deep impression, something just what you referred.
Not just the fight but what he said after..Pettis is great but extremely injury prone..this is why Ben is the leader of lightweight division(that is when he isn't tryin to be pretty boy)
I also like his JD3 destroyed Moraga..making his own statement at Mighty Mouse..dunno why people sleep on Flyweights..they can go 10 rounds if asked..unlike big out of shape fighters
