Watch what happens at 11:18 (the slow mo replay) Diaz gets caught (stunned)....falls... face on the canvas...Daley hits Diaz 5 times on the ground (Nick's back is turned too)... But the ref doesn't stop anything... [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VZ-fuA7-sw[/ame] Fedor , in the same situation (but different ref)....Hendo catches him , lands 2 shots... Fedor is still conscious , ref intervenes...fedor turns around to continue... but it's too late , the fight is stopped.. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oG839-OoAsE[/ame] According to you guys , fedor was finished...And the ref saved him ? BULL****. The reality of the situation ? You don't ****ing know if he was saved or not... Was Paul Daley robbed then ? ... Oh i get it...Fedor is not Diaz , and he'd be incapable to make a come back right ?
No comparison for me. Daley stuns Diaz. Diaz looks hurt and is going for the take down then continues to attempt to defend himself. Fedor goes limp and even when the ref stops it looks in no way to be defending himself. No where near the same.
This is proof that it was a just stoppage. Diaz covered his face with his forearms limiting the effectiveness of Daley's strikes Fedor was still eating shots to the chin as Herb pushed Hendo off. Is that intelligently defending himself? Was he hoping to break Hendo's hand on his chin?
It's a bull**** stoppage...end of story. He isn't unconscious , he turns around , no matter the outcome , the ref should've let the fight continue to make sure that he'd be incapable to defend himself....Ref stops it after 2 hits...it's bull****. As a matter of fact , this guy is not the type to make any excuses , but in the post fight he mentioned this. Fedor thought that the early stoppage was a pity. Knowing what this fighter can do...it is ...BULL****
Sorry , but i don't buy it. I guess we'll never agree on this one. bull**** stoppages happen a lot in mma , (and bull**** decisions too). But it's easier to accept now that Fedor lost 3 fights in a row. His 2 previous losses were legit. This one was ended prematurely....Like i said in the other thread, the only other bull**** fight i can think of (which tops this robbery) is his fight against Kosaka. It's a premature stoppage.
Rashad vs Chuck Bisping vs Hendo Machida vs Rashad Shogun vs Machida All those was stopped to early too but what are you gonna do about it?
That's what he did though. So post any :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl bull**** emoticons all you want. Doesn't change what happened in the fight. at 0:29 secs....Hendo lands 1 & 2.....the ref is already there. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oG839-OoAsE[/ame] :smoke
:rofl Watch from 3:46 and tell me Fedor wasn't on ***** street, Dean came in for a closer look and seen he was in no state to take any more punishment.
So fedor thought the fight was over because Herb was taking a closer so that's why he let Dan keep hitting him another 3 or 4 times before Herb pushed Dan away
Especially Bisping vs Hendo [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONdUDQv_j1A[/ame] Exactly at 0:46 Bisping is still moving his left foot....Then the ref interupts the fight just like that ? BULL**** !!!
No you don't. I'm actually very serious about Fedor's case. But i'm not devoid of a sense of humor. Obviously , Greathamza's examples are ridiculous.... Still , i do think Fedor vs Hendo was bull****. Especially...when the opponent is fedor. (a guy who can make huge come backs in terrible situations)... It was ****ing bull****.
