Vitor vs. Hendo stoppage?

Excellent stoppage. When soneone's head bounces back from the canvas, like Hendo's did after the 2nd knockdown, it indicates that the guy just lost consciousness. Could he regain consciusness? Maybe, but the follow up punches from Vitor are likely to induce more damage.

Holding the leg means absolutely nothing. Several fighters went after the referee, while being out, so this is a fight reflex, nothing more.

It comes down to this: a snowball's chance in hell for recovery vs risking brain damage. Maybe some people would risk Hendo getting brain damaged for the hope of a dramatic comeback...

It was a good call and the ref should be praised, as he was at the right spot and intervened with no hesitation.
