Early stoppage in Alvarez-Dos Anjos

[Not A Real Fan]

Eddie probably would have won but the ref should have let it go longer.

RDA simply walked off after the ref ended the fight.

Imagine if the ref had stopped the Edgar-Maynard 2 in the first?

Herb dean strikes again.

Dude. RDA was taking serious damage. He didn't protest it, so neither should you.

 

[CJohnny]

Then it was for RDA vs Cerrone too.

 

[mime]

RDA didn't seem to be upset though, thats what i thought was strange

 

[gevoudane]

He took quit a few punches without doing anything but stopping them with his face. Not bad at all. RDA didnt even complain at all.

 

[hashback*]

RDA was hurt. He didn't argue the stoppage.

 

[Fadetoblack918]

RDA got hit ALOT. I thought that stoppage was warranted

That doesn't mean shit. Not everyone is the kind of person to make a dramatic scene after a controversial stoppage. Not to mention what would be the point? It's not like the ref is going to restart it

 

[IIIIIIII]

dos anjos wasn't fighting back. he was only trying to defend strikes. good stoppage.

 

[Carl25]

RDA couldn't protect himself when Herb was telling him to, then he ate 5-6 shots with no answer other than pushing

 

[nogdog]

No, RDA took a ton of damage. A standing TKO can be warranted. Herb Dean is a pretty bad ref, worst in the game relative to his industry reputation, but he didn't mess up here tonight.

 

[gabrielspecter]

I guess when RDA is a corpse on the canvas, then you guys would be satisfied.

 

[Rational Poster]

Perfect stoppage.

You're an idiot @Not A Real Fan

That doesn't change the fact he was getting beat up bad.

Lol at people pretending this was some kind of bad stoppage. Some might have let it go longer, but to say it was a bad stoppage is just stupid.

 

[hypocalking]

Herb sucks

 

[Burning Hammer]

Yeah he should need to eat from a straw and not be able to control his extremities before it gets stopped!

 

[JSN]

I wouldn't have minded letting it go a little more in light of it being a championship fight, but I have no problem with it either. Totally justified.

 

[subhuman trash]

Not really. RDA was wobbling. Eddie struggled to get it done more convincingly, but RDA was finished considering there was no way he'd recover with a minute and a half remaining.

 

[bbradt0232]

He wasn't out, but I was expecting it to be stopped at any second. He took 3 ridiculous uppercuts right before Herb stepped in.
