Bisping however never stopped punching, had some pretty good stuffs on the takedowns and was the only one attempting techniques while they were on the ground by going for the triangles.
When you take a look at the scoring rules for the judges in UFC, you'll see that Bisping rightfully won that fight, but that it was definitely close, if Hamill would have pushed the action a bit in the 3rd it would have been his for sure.

But Bisping didn't do any damage to Hamill at all. I agree that Hamill didn't do a whole lot outside of round one, but he did throw and land good punches, and he took Bisping down many times in every round demonstrating supremacy over him. The only person that ever got damaged throughout any of the rounds was Bisping. I think Bisping fought with more heart, but that wasn't enough to give him the fight. He simply could not take Hamill if his life depended on it.
