If Only RDA was an American Poster Boy like Weidman. Then maybe Herb Dean would've gave him a chance

[Once Ever Sherdogger]

Seriously it was a disgrace.


RDA wasn't close to being out.


inb4 "Why didn't he protest"....It doesn't matter if you protest, the fight is over, not to mention he was just getting hit in the fucking head...Why protest something that you can't change when your brain is rattled?


Fact is that he wasn't out, he wasn't close to out....This is MMA, you get fucking hit.


Of course if you are the American poster boy, Weidman aka New York boy...You can get destroyed on the mount and do absolutely nothing for more than a minute.

He didn't protest cause he thought he was in Brazil and just woke up.

Protesting does nothing....The man had just gotten hit, who wants to protest when it does nothing in that state?

Herb Dean saved at least 10 years on the end of his life. He was out on his feet and only going to get hurt worse. Go to bed, wake up rewatch the fight, and then send Herb Dean a thank you letter for saving your boys life.

People protest because they are not out of it and can't believe the fight got stopped.

It was a bad stoppage. It should have been stopped earlier.

LMFAO....I seen people protest shit when they are obviously out.


Protesting doesn't mean shit....Some people simply accept the decision.


It shouldn't have been stopped at all.

Very similar to Diaz vs Maynard 2. He was out on his feet, just wouldn't go down. He was not defending himself intelligently and was teetering on the line of possible brain damage.

And yes, everyone agree that Weidman Rockhold should've been stopped earlier, but hey so should have Evans vs Griffin and several others.

It was a good stoppage. He was hurt and wasn't really showing any offence. Sometimes it's best to call it a little early and save a few years of your life.

RDA will get another chance to be champ again

He didn't protest because his speech center in his brain was still damaged and disconnected. He was out on his feet.

57 significant strikes landed in just under 4 minutes, completely fair stoppage. A well earned and well deserved win for Alvarez. Welcome to reality.
