    the same happens in boxing, the judges are either paid off or there's other considerations, like voting for the underdog will cost them future assignments, either way it's bull****.

    The worst decision I can recall seeing, made the Shogun/Machida call look accurate

    I mean I can see some room for debate in round 3, but how anyone could score the first round to Leonard is beyond me.

    He sure did but he blamed The Nevada State Athletic Commision, not the UFC.

    Either way it was one of the worst robberies I've ever seen in a fight.

    decision was complete BS, the judges and the decision should be struck off straight away. just watching the event at the mo, Cody Mckenzie looks like he'll be one bad mofo!

    I like the line Nam said: "Can't an Asian brother get any love?? :rofl :lol:

    I seriously think those 2 judges that scored for Garcia were paid off. The reason? Hispanics make up a huge market chunk of any PPV whether it be boxing or MMA. It's in their best interest to see decisions go the way of the hispanic fighter, especially if that fighter is Mexican. No disrespect to Garcia, it's not his fault, he's usually a very exciting fighter.

    Didi anyone happen to catch the Bellator Women's champ Frausto get 2 gift decisions? She got her ass kicked by some other, less marketable hispanic girl named Aguilar in the semis & then IMO she lost to Fuji but somehow got that decision too. That was as corrupt as it gets...................

    That doesn't mean they can't be paid off by Zuffa or anyone else...................

    I can't find a link to this fight ANYWHERE on the interwebs?! I have to see what everyone is talking about. I like Nam I think he'll need to go to Strikeforce because the UFC historically doesn't like asians.

    Again, I'm not sure it was Zuffa but the fact that Nam is Asian & Garcia is Mex-American might well have played a role. Sad but true. :-(

    I always feel slightly deflated when I see an Asian get put to ****ing sleep in the UFC, like some sort of built-in anti-racism where if I ever see an ethnic minority get knocked the **** out it always disheartens me. There's nothing worse than seeing Yoshiyuki Yoshida get his lights put out by Koscheck and then... Anthony Rumble Johnson? Are you serious? That is an absolute feeding right there, horrible to watch. The poor little ****.

    bull**** promoters have a big say in what refs and judges get the gig

    In what world is Leonard Garcia more marketable than a former TUF semi-finalist?
