Should Anderson have been disqualified?

[Deleted member 196663]

Jumping up on the cage while the fight has not ended in my opinion is a very serious offense. There is a reason that the fighters get pat down before they enter the cage. The officials are making sure no illegal items are being taken into the cage. In the midst of all that confusion someone could have passed Anderson something illegal from the outside to use in the fight. Somehing like what Chong Li used in the Frank Dux fight at the end of Bloodsport or even worse.

Anyway I believe it should be illegal for a fighter to jump and sit on the cage during a fight and especially if the fighter refuses to immediately get down when instructed they should be disqualified on the spot. Do you agree?

You are the reason why there are warning labels on everything.

...what?

Disqualified for maybe getting a secret weapon seen in a movie...yes...for sure...why not.

Regardless if you think that Silva was trying to oversell to get the win, or if he actually thought he won, there is no rules that state 'Fighter cannot celebrate victory and be mistaken'.

I dunno wtf all that Bloodsport nonsense is about...so yea...keep on trucking.
