Here is a good angle of the knee.

[Epicness]

Here is the best possible view of the knee that occurred tonight. Clearly the knee missed and hit his shoulder, but as it came down it landed on the head.

In my opinion that doesn't matter which makes it legal, but what are your thoughts guys?

Also is this illegal to anyone? Clearly downed.

Your argument lost all validity when you chose the shittiest possible comparison

"A good angle" ... from behind the damn leg?

He's trying to show it was thrown to the right of the head and actually hit the shoulder instead.

....something we couldnt see in the other angle gif.

Yeah that makes sense. That's like saying I show you a video of someone getting shot and then I compare it to something stupid and then you say you didn't see anything.

I'm happy he won but it was illegal. He attempted to knee his downed opponent and grazed his head. His knee did make contact. He's been fighting for so long, not sure why he went for that knee.

terrible angle btw

 

[FinalConflict2005]

What about the elbows to the back of the head?

A knee to the shoulder of a downed opponent is legal no?

terrible angle btw

How is it terrible when it clearly shows him throwing a knee to Emmet's shoulder?

Here is the best possible view of the knee that occurred tonight. Clearly the knee missed and hit his shoulder (which is a legal thrown shot) then rebounded to the top of Emmet's head.

In my opinion that doesn't matter which makes it legal, but what are your thoughts guys?

Also is this illegal to anyone? Clearly downed. (and I'm talking about the knee that comes down after the initial one lands)

If your answer is it doesn't matter, then exactly case closed. It doesn't matter, the outcome of the fight would have been the same.

First knee was illegal second was not. So just deal with it.

This isn't about the elbow to the back of the head and I'm not even going to dispute that because I don't really care. LOL

 

[hillelslovak87]

The last elbow to the back of the head messed him up way worse than the missed knee.

How was the first knee illegal? It hit his shoulder.

 

[MrCoffee]

not sure why you would even mention the Romero knee

That looks like Weidman’s face post knee to face.

He grazed his head.

 

[jackson12]

He threw a knee. It missed. Even if that fight had been stopped for a sec he was going to get murked.

Or so it may seem, to the untrained eye..

The ref is watching the whole thing and did nothing

That's what this should be about

 

[w00t]

It's over. Legal smegal. Stephens knocked his ass out. Ref didnt call it. The knee made no difference in the outcome. Time to move on.

 

[X Factor]

That's literally like the worst angle
