Media Joe Hogan trying to dismantle Yamasaki in a post-fight interview

[Dirty Frank]

Didn't know Hogan was even allowed to interview refs after fights.
And he was actually wrong here: there's at least one shot that was clearly to the back of the head.
Disgusting!

You don't get as far as Rogan has in life without being a bit of a scumbag . Guarantee he was put up to that and followed through with it.

why was a ref interviewed in the first place - just all type of weird there.

Top prospect

You see the ref pacing around near the end like he wants to fight joe

 

[JosephTessaro]

You do anything to protect a young prospect, especially when it is Erick "A Fierce Tiger" Silva.

think it's utter shit that he interviewed and tried hard to call out Yamasaki, (regardless of what people think of him good or bad) then tells young prospect "I think he made a mistake here"...kind of messed up in my humble opinion.

 

[Skarsgard]

I'm actually with Joe here. Yamasaki fucked this one up hard.

 

[linvillegorge]

I actually don't mind it. Refs are treated as untouchable in sports and they really shouldn't be. When they fuck up they should have to explain themselves even if the explanation is "Hey, I fucked up. It wasn't what I thought I saw. My bad."

 

[xhaydenx]

One of them clearly did hit the back of the head and the opponent didn't turn into it or anything, so how did the ref fuck up here exactly?

Like, you don't get a pass just because you mixed in legal shots with your illegal one.

Refs should totally be called out and put on the spot for their decisions. I don’t think there’s enough accountability on their parts for some of the extremely questionable decisions we’ve seen.

I am still baffled that Erick Silva was a bust, I remember at one time thinking he would eventually become champ.

He's young, he has time to hit his prime

He apparently retired after having a heart attack.

God damn it, its the running joke around here lol.

I'm aware. I had just discovered that last night and haven't had the opportunity to share.

Damn, I hope he's ok.
That dude has no luck.

Yeah, he survived and everything. He just figured it was probably time to call it a career.

Yeah when you're having heart attacks I think fighting takes a backseat sir.
