If you meant the judge I’m pretty sure it was Douglas Crosby - getting rid of him is like trying to kill a cockroach.

So fun and everyone should do it?

you have to be a judge sometimes before a ref. i remember one of the judges for randleman rutten was dan mirgalotta he scored it for rutten and later goes on to be a ref. btw refs get paid more than judges i think so maybe dan did such a good job judging the ufc gave him a ref job. just a conspiracy theory cuz everyone knows randleman won that fight. maybe the ufc was trying to push rutten

Just watched the main event. I had sabatello 4-1, that was a bullshit decision. Sab dominated the whole time, the pillow fluffball shots on the ground did nothing. John McCarthy needs a new job.

 

[GSPenn1991]

Bad decision IMO.

Horrible. Sabatello was dominating. The judges should be ashamed. I had it 4-1, could be 3-2, but sabatello was mauling him. Had his back like 15 times.

lol this reffing

not only the main event but like Joanne vs Kielholtz had 30-27 and 27-30, hows this even possible

Crap fell asleep during Carmouche!

Hope the main was good! Will catch up in a few hours!

If someone is using a hug attack and it is effective what is the problem??

I thought Sabatello won. No that I enjoyed it because he couldn't do any damage. I liked the wrestling exchanges. Not that long ago that control time would have won the fight.
Sabatello needs some darn ground strikes. It looked like a LW vs a FW.
Patty Mix will swat little Stotts.

I like his podcast with Big John, I feel like it's the best one out there right now

[BEATDOWNS]

The way Sabatello left the cage was pretty funny.

 

[Doctor Grudge]

Sabatello had the same look on his face when DW dismissed him off the contenders series for a control based performance with no damage...LoL

One of the judges scored it a 30-24 for him too lmao

I’m aware, that’s why they’re here and not the UFC. I’m sure he’s a great training partner.

Obligatory "do you even train bro".
