Time to boycott NY/NJ fights

I honestly thought the lady doctor wanted to call the fight and earlier
 
Was impressed with both guys in this fight

Lee’s kicks and wrestling looked good

Edson made Kevin do the fish dance (Bas) but he couldn’t capitalize.

Lee looked great in there, especially comparing this fight to Khabib/Edson, imo
 
You're right TS, it's pure stupidity, they should hire us sherdoggers instead of doctors...
 
Until this commission and their doctors study up on the sport and the cuts/damages that are common this is pointless... We constantly see fights after fights just pure stupidity happening in the cage and its always during NY/NJ cards.

How do you stop this fight with 2 minutes left when hes been bleeding like that the entire 5th round.... Especially after he defended the fucking takedown rofl.... Thats not even anything special in terms of damage.... A swollen cut eye? Thats like every fucking fight ever that has damage involved...especially over 5 fucking rounds....

This commission and its doctors are terrible, not watching any of the NY/NJ cards again, this is horse shit.

Learn the system, train your guys, then maybe, right now its like no one knows what to do as soon as a fighter starts bleeding everyone gets scared.
Mario "Be a Warrior" Yamasaki, is that you?
 
He didn't take little damage from Lee in the 4th. Lee lands heavy shots from on top.

You are judging this based on the wrong criteria, which is why you continue to be necessarily frustrated. It does not matter how well Barboza was performing at the time of the stoppage. Doctors aren't called in to consider the momentum of the fight or any of that, but simply to examine the physical condition of the fighter. They found that his eyes were swollen shut and that the fight couldn't continue. It wasn't a difficult decision and it need not be controversial.

It was an entirely sensible stoppage.

In the fourth yes, he took damage, and between the 4th and 5th rounds, the doc decided he was fit to fight. Then in the 5th, he took little to no damage and was having success stopping the takedown.

The fight should've been called between rounds. If his eye was swollen shut during the 5th, it was swollen before, which is when the fight should've been stopped.

Dude, you need to rewatch the fight. Lee landed several shots standing in the fifth round. The cut was not present and Barboza's right eye was still open at the end of the fourth. Defending the takedown is irrelevant, he couldn't see and was going to take more damage standing.
 
The fuck were you watching? He got lit up by punches in spite of stuffing the TDs. The shots that Lee landed in the fifth caused the damage on Barboza's face to worsen to the point that the stoppage was warranted.

If you had any form of reading comprehension, you'd be capable of reading what's in parentheses before. Where I said granted, I was tired.

But hey, hope your post made you feel tough!

Dude, sorry I worked 12 hours and was dead tired by like 1am. Comment again on it, maybe the third time will make it more relevant.

Okay.

Here's a screen grab of Barboza at the beginning of the fifth. There's clearly less damage than there was at the time of the stoppage.

He got lit up by Lee during the round. The stoppage was justified. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.

Now go post the pic of him just after they wiped his face with a towel.... It will be almost same shit... All you did here was prove that neither one of his eyes were completly shut and that he was more then fight and should have been fighting, especially for 2 more minutes.

All that happened was the doc stopped it because of the blood which was dumb and unnecessary, any of the damage on his face from this pic at all is just regular shit we see in almost every fight in the UFC. Anyone arguing for a legit stoppage here is either kevin lee nutthugger or is delusional in thinking that this damage should ever stop a fight.
 
I mean if you didn't stop it from last night's cut and swelling, then it might as well not be a rule. His left eye was almost completely swollen shut and blood was running straight down into his right eye from a cut exactly over it.
 
If his eye was swollen shut during the 5th, it was swollen before, which is when the fight should've been stopped.
1. So it is your position that swelling does not increase over time? Also, whether or not you think any damage was being done, it isn't the case.
2. The man's eye was completely swollen shut. We can argue about whether the fight should have been stopped earlier. But there's no doubt that the fight should have been stopped when it was.
