Ridiculous stoppage (PFL Europe 1 Doumbe vs Baki Aftermath **MERGED**)

[MMAProfessional]

Dude literally just gave up due to a sliver in his toe. Wow

Edit for those hating on Goddard:

Tootsie sliver

 

[TRVITMVNZ]

Wow. It actually look like he was on his way to winning too

 

[brody_in_ga]

Hahah! What a terrible event overall. Boring

 

[Koya]

WTF is wrong with Goddard. He spoiled us out of the fight. Just deduct the dude one point and let the fight continue

If it's a foreign object that went through his toe, shouldn't that be a timeout?

 

[TheFlamingFist]

Wait what happened?

 

[Banana Tree's Nemesis]

I mean he did just ask for a timeout. Super weird situation. He never actually stopped fighting, maybe the right call. Idk.

Maybe don't turn this into boxing and let 148 people crowd the ring in between rounds and matches because they will bring an unholy amount of dirt in and the fighters can't wear shoes afterall.

Maybe, this might be something he can ask to be reviewed and changed to a no contest if they can prove there was a piece of glass in his toe.

Seems like he got a piece of glass in his toe. This might get changed to a NC.

Dumbe stopped fighting and pointed towards his foot and Goddard said you have to keep fighting. Then the fight continues with a staring match and his opponent pointed at Dumbe because he was just standing that then Dumber pointed to his foot again, fight stops via TKO. They show a close of of Dumbe having what appears to be a small wooden sliver (the ones you get as a kid) in his big toe.

Did Goddard bring the Doc in?

It wasn't glass (I don't think) it looked like a wooden sliver. English isn't his first language and you could tell he couldn't put into words what he thought it was.

It looked like it might have been a brown piece of glass. Either way there was a foreign object in his toe and it wasn't a broken toe or dislocated or anything like that. Hopefully whatever commission France uses reviews it.

Did Goddard bring the Doc in?

No. Visually it looked like Dumbe was saying his foot was injured. No clear call but he really should have just fought after Goddard warned him the first time. We will see but it seemed to be a sliver which I'm sure would be a pain in the ass but not something that he shouldn't be able to fight through.

 

[El Che]

Between the Gaziev stoppage this past weekend and now the Doumbe one, some weird endings recently. Hopefully not a bad omen for this weekend's fights.

 

[MMALOPEZ]

Time Out!!! lol

Nope, I think the language barrier was an issue here.

Dumbe got a warning at first. Goddard clearly was almost gonna stop it after the first break. He really should have realized he should deal with it or its going to end.

No the Goddard barrier was an issue. Guy is a lunatic. Remember the three volume book he wrote when Conor jumped the cage in bellator ? The guy can let a fight go until near death then gets all crazy flustered and stops a fight like that
