Honestly I was confused by the decision - I think Houston won it and the judges scored inaccurately.
Sure, Kimbo had pretty good ground work, and really did control it here and there - but he literally initiated nothing throughout the entire fight.
Houston is an awesome guy, and his fights really haven't yet let him truly shine; I did feel he had too much respect for Kimbo and as such didn't fight with as much aggression as is appropriate for him.
In my opinion Houston won and the judges scored it funny.
Yet & still - excellent display of sportsmanship.
