The boy is right.

 

[TallGHunter]

smells like Lesnar/'Mir 1, where the ref was a life long friend of Mir's dad.

 

[MCS]

If it's deemed as a conflict it discourages ex-fighters to become judges. Circles are too small.

 

[mollox21]

He should appeal
And they need to give him the victory.
The score in round 1 was a mistake, admit that

 

[Zebra Cheeks]

That’s bull shit. It was bull shit before we knew about this connection, now it’s even worse. Sure the ufc can treat him like a winner and move him up to fight a ranked guy, but that doesn’t put bread on the table today

No it doesn’t. Brock was subbed in less the 2min

 

[Th3Sav4ge]

thats the only reason you can give him round 1. clear bias.

 

[USA!USA!]

lol how is that just a minor conflict of interest.. the guy had direct ties to his opponent's camp?

 

[xyzxyz94]

Yah that shouldn't be happening. I thought Giles took round 3 though

 

[jkthenatural]

So this guy has trained bjj and didn’t give krause round one? Hmm

 

[s1ncity]

Hope they rematch

Full camp Krause obliterates him

People calling for former fighters to be judges can't whinne about this, this would be much more common if former fighters judged fights.

 

[Rvd Slmr]

The Texas AC is a joke.

It's not hard to do a simple background check or to expect the judges to step aside on their own when there's such blatant issues with a particular fighter.

 

[Fergelmince]

He doesn't bring in enough PPVs to complain. That's how things work.

 

[Miq]

Fight should be overturned

 

[Chubi]

I don't even care about James Krause, but him losing the first round is number 1 bullshit. It never will be perfect, but MMA judging becomes more and more ridiculous through the years.

 

[kimocomplex]

James is correct on all counts

especially Judges being held accountable

 

[Sweater of AV]

What a shitshow.

 

[TallGHunter]

No it doesn’t. Brock was subbed in less the 2min

You mean after the ref stopped all of lesners progress and left him a bit distracted?
