not only does the dude ref more fights than any other active referee, he refs more high profile fights as well. Anyone who works as much as he does is going to make calls that some find questionable. They don't, however, erase the thousands of good calls he makes that go ignored because people only care about the bad calls.
Holy fuck, are shertards being retarded now?Lol, holy fuck...are people seriously white-knighting referees now <45>
He's been screwing up a lot more than just lately, there's many many more fights he screwed up, it's damn near comical. I have no Idea why the The Red Faced Goof never jumped all over Herb ass like he did all the other refs, and Herb is worse imo. It's like as if Dana has Herb in his back pocket or something.He let mcgregor cheated
He screwed up lawler vs askren
Mario Yamasaki is the real mvp
Wrong. He didn't let McGregor cheat, he just made a judgement call that the degree he cheated wasn't stopping Khabib from imposing his will so it was better not to stop the action. I think after the second fence grab he should have taken a point but I see the argument against that. Perhaps to really punish the fighters he should just call out "1 point McGregor, fence grab" without stopping the action to really mindfuck the cheater. I'd be all about that. He doesn't deserve a break for cheating. Or call our 1 point and also give credit for a takedown and reposition them on the mat. Either way I'm cool with it. But I've only ever seen a ref do that once or twice in the most egregious of cases and I don't recall ever seeing it in a championship fight. Can't put that on herb.He let mcgregor cheated

Herb's mistakes tend to be minimal. He usually prioritizes allowing the action to continue over breaks to enforce rules. He does the latter when he has to. He has let some fights go way too long in my opinion but I don't really think any of his stoppages were too early (even if the other fighter jumped up to protest).He's been screwing up a lot more than just lately, there's many many more fights he screwed up, it's damn near comical.

The Khabib vs McGregor fight proved, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that he's crooked as fuck.
