really? what a bummer. i have to see that.
thanks for the vid. that was crappy stoppage. :mad:
great. more idiot refs. :mad:
and the same ref allowed bisping to punish his opponent for more than 30secs before he stopped the fight.
big john is still the man! too bad he is retired.
Please tell me not another situation where the ref stops the fight too son... :(Quote:

McCarthy, ABC to Review �Grounded Knees�
most of the baby punches where on veras arms he wasnt dazed or anything. vera has the ability to get out of that position.
if i was the ref i wouldve let vera turn his back from werdum just like what he was doing before the fight was stopped. then if he still cant get out of that situation then call the fight.
big john said it himself....
i know a lot hates vera but i like him as a fighter, he is well rounded and likes to fight bigger natural heavies.
