You're not playing basketball or football. This is fighting, and yes it's in the heat of the moment, which is why there needs to be a no tolerance policy, you don't ever touch a referee inside the cage when that bell rings.
Not to mention on the last show they had a guy blatantly fish hook his opponent, which is one of the if not the biggest no nos in MMA oh but that's ok because his girlfriend is one of their marquee female fighters.
Dana White is just another corrupt boxing promoter in disguise... [Reply]

I'd cut him too....immediately.
We're not talking about suspended for one year or even two years, we're talking about life. If you take a swing at a ref sure, but life for that?
I'd think being out for year(s) should be plenty for a deterrent, but life seems extreme. [Reply]

I saw the replay and I'm not sure it was blatant. He did have is finger in his opponents mouth but I think if it were blatant, his opponents head would have turned the opposite way that it turned. I could be wrong but that is the way I saw it. It didn't have any bearing on the outcome and his opponent and opponents coach weren't complaining about it after the fight. [Reply]
Anyone else looking forward to the fight tonight? Its unusual to see someone with wicked knockout power in the tiny man division, but if Bagautinov can catch him, he could take the title.
Schaub keeps going for the one-punch knockout. Andrei is...
actually I don't know what the hell Andei is doing. This guy used to be the heavyweight champion? Really? I wasn't watching MMA whenever that was. [Reply]
