Last 4 Shogun fights were refereed by Mario Yamasaki...

OSP, Lil Nog, Corey Anderson and Villante.

Damn, it always get me nervous when seeing Mario refereing my fave fighter.

He hasnt screwed up yet, although i think he let OSP hit Rua with some extra punches towards the finish.

Rua is a warrior . I don't even look for the ref in his fights . Either he's winning it or losing it by KO/Sub ..... Thats a real fighter right there .

This makes no sense.

This makes no sense.

Did I need to post it in brail ? No need for a ref if the fight is over and done with . Thats Rua style BOI .

This makes no sense.

Especially since 2 of those last 4 were decisions.

Yamasaki made the right call, Chiesa went out, sure he's made some bad calls in the past but he was spot on here.

Every ref has their bad days. Nothing to worry about. Except for Josh Rosenthal. He's the GOAT.

It could be argued that the ref is more necessary in a fight that does not go to decision. You seem to be conflating judges and referees.
