I hope its free

 

[Headkicktoleg]

ok. Good luck on your 2nd loss

 

[Arm Barbarian]

 

[fortheo]

I doubt anything will come of it.

 

[jk7707]

He got KTFO. The knee missed.

 

[Death By Samson]

It doesn't hurt to try but they will fail. The knee did not impact the outcome.

 

[Head Movement]

Has there ever been a fighter who successfully appealed a loss?

 

[The Witcher]

Well if the knee was deemed to be illegal then he has that right.

 

[Filthymaggot]

Doesn’t matter, appeals almost never end in overturned fights.
Yes, Stephens hit him with what looked like illegal elbows to the back of the head and the illegal knee grazed him. They won’t overturn it regardless.

It just shows how incompetent these referees are tbh.

 

[Filthymaggot]

He got KTFO. The knee missed.

It pretty clearly grazed him, but the real damage were the elbows to the back of the head imo

 

[The Witcher]

If you got hit with an illegal blow that basically stopped the fight, on the main event on biggest fight in career, you would appeal too.

 

[Sonny Qc]

Just book a rematch.

Was a fun fight.

I think Stephens wins again.

 

[Amerikuracana]

Ok. Wtevr. We saw what was happening. They get a NC.

 

[Dorkman]

They over turn next to nothing unless a positive drug test is involved, not expecting anything to come of it.

 

[nintey]

I don't think it really changed the outcome of the fight, but the fact he purposely threw it when it was blatantly illegal was horrible. It was an intentional foul even though it missed. Ref should have stopped it asap and taken a point.

Once again this just shows there needs to be more clarity in the rules.

 

[Kingz]

A whole lot of illegal in that finish. From the elbows and the knee

 

[Son Peyote]

Legalize all knees

 

[Sonny Qc]

Has there ever been a fighter who successfully appealed a loss?

Can't remember.

Happen often tho.

Weidman appealed after Mousasi loss
Holm after GDR

And many many more

 

[Sid Arthur]

No contest.
