Is Mario Yamasaki one of the best referees UFC had?

 

[andmcq]

He's definitely the best ref in the Octagon in each fight he refs.

I remember Trigg saying that if Big John was the ref during his fight with Hughes, he would've been the champion. If you have a pulse, the fight goes on for Mario.

He's the Abyssal Persecutor.

Mario's got nothing on Percival the Unmerciful

Thats such a dumb argument to make

If the guy was able not only to beat you, but actually stop you as well that should tell you that the fight shouldn’t have been stopped

Not only does he sacrifice fighters to the JBG, he also does in cage boob checks on the women.

Hindsight's 20/20. It's one of those moment that having Mario as a ref was a blessing.

Well chiesa was complaining his fight was stopped too early

So there’s always someone complaining

That's the way it should be.

This era of early stoppages steals opportunities from fighters who would probably win a lot of the fights that the attacker would gas from not truly finishing the fight.
