"That kick was legal that hurt Brown to the body," said White. "I thought McCarthy would have seen it. McCarthy was staring right at it. I thought he was looking at it. That wasn't a low blow. That was a legal kick that hurt Brown bad."

Criticized over social media for the incident, Brown defended himself Sunday via his Facebook page.

"First off thanks to ‪#‎theimmortalarmy‬ for your constant support," said Brown. "Second off I've read some things saying that said I faked the nut shot. I would never do that in my fucking life. That's bullshit. Period. End of story."

To further clarify the situation, McCarthy took to Twitter to insist that neither fighter was at fault.

"For information, the kick thrown by Robbie was legal, his shin moved Brown's cup, you could hear it, that's why Brown was given a moment."
 
it grazed his cup, it's pretty obvious in the gif.

That kick is fine but big john calls the kick in the Krause fight a knock out?
 
he grazed the cup, dana talking out his ass before getting all the facts again. sure in real time its hard to notice but you really think Big John is making up that he heard it graze the cup?? Or that Browns shorts just decided to jump up before the impact on his stomach for no reason??
 
If Big John said he heard it hit the cup I think you've got to give him the benefit of the doubt. He was a lot closer than Joe and Dana, and he has a lot more experience with what goes on in the cage.

Great call by John. Some people like to pretend that calls like this are easy. Refs don't have the benefit of instant replay

Well I thought when I first saw it he was faking too.
 
Majority of sherdog says he faked the low blow, no one really cares.
Dana White says he faked the low blow, sherdog implodes in minutes.

close up of that gif is much more revealing too, did hit the cup but was legal. case closed.
