    Because he took out the guy's mouthpiece? The ref was too slow to stop that choke and I think he was genuinely worried for the dude's safety...

    The worst case is Aoki flipping the finger and for that reason I hope he is brutalised every single time. One of the best cases is in a fight recently where they were touching gloves before and at the end of every round. It was too much. Can't remember which fight.

    Aoki fights by his own code, flipping the finger was the most honourable thing he could have done, it showed respect for the defeated opponent as opposed to a "Hey, nice fight, sorry I broke your arm, better tap next time"

    I believe that was Marquardt.

    Hendo nailing Bisping after dropping him was out of respect for the fans.

    To me, great sportsmanship is truly exhibited when two individuals really hate each other, yet they are still polite and publicly show respect for each other.

    After all, your commitment for sportsmanship isn't really tested when the guy you're fighting is someone you're already buddies with.
