Marios one of the worst refs but saying that henderson ko of bisbing was a late stoppage is ridiculous. He was literally running towards them to end it before bisbing even hit the ground
It was an unnecessary shot though 👀
Thats why they call him mario If he dies he dies yamasaki i have also heard him called if she dies she dies yamasaki, not sure why the difference, something to do with weightclass or promotion maybe?
@@FlashbackMMAbut how was he gonna stop that?
Super necessary 🎉
Steve Mazzagatti is far worse yet nobody talks about it lol
No referee on earth would’ve been fast enough to stop Henderson from landing that 2nd shot on Bisping
Well, the corner can throw in the towel. I don't know why they just stand there and watch if they know their fighter is out!!
I was wondering that too.
Exactly what I was thinking
I'm glad Mario let the Travis Brown/Derrick Lewis fight go a bit longer than he should have..
Truth 😂
I never thought about this, I wonder if Mario heard the news and wanted to see a little justice 😂
What I take from this video is that Mike Beltran is the best damn referee in the game.
1000 percent
He hasn't been around and a lot of the guys. Give it time. I'm sure he'll make a mistake. I always thought Josh Rosenthal was pretty consistent from the earlier era.
Everyone though Jason Herzog could do no wrong but were quick to turn on him after Cannoniers last fight
An "air restrictive lock"? You mean a choke...?
King is literally the type of guy to pay the ref off so the people get to see what they came for
"If you approach a ref you're fired" - unless your conor..
Conor McGregor is a hinderance to the sport. There’s no denying his skill and he’s a massive earner, but he behaves like a petulant toddler outside the ring.
To quote Dana White’s appraisal of Randy Couture; There’s no more of a man when he enters the ring and no less a man when he steps out of it. I disagree with Dana’s view of Couture, but it’s a perfect fit for McGregor.
@@Enraged-Gecko I agree. I think he has a serious drinking problem. Dana isn't credble with regards to his fighters,
Who’s Here After Imavov Vs Cannonier?👀
Probably everyone 😂
Was about to comment that my favorite ref wasn’t on here but you saved the very few Goddard bad stoppages till the very end
The bad Goddard stoppages are the early ones, hes good at protecting the fighters from taking extra damage, he hasn't been reffing alot of championship fights lately if you notice, and they made sure Jiri vs Alex 2 was definitive. Great in the lower stake fights at saving fighters from catastrophic damage, or unneeded damage. But when he takes these calls into his own hands with millions and legacy on the line its another thing.
16:33 Fun fact: You’ll still hear Jerin Valel’s name at UFC events… because he’s a judge now. You can look him up and see he’s still reffing and judging.
Edit 43:42 There he is again
2nd edit 52:28 And again
😂
Mazzagati how the hell did you get into that profession on the highest of levels. Blows my mind
Dude this was amazing! Great video, good editing, good commentary! Keep it up and your channel will blow up for sure.
Thank you! 🙏
Can't lay all the blame on the ref,the fighters corner has the options to throw in the towel. Especially if they think their fighter is taking to much damage.
Man I’m so tired of people saying Herb is such a great ref when he messes up just as much as other refs if not more
He refs a lot more fights. Also His are no where near as bad as others. He might sometimes give up an extra punch or 2. But the amount times Mario and Steve watched someone for 35-60 seconds just get beat while unconscious is insane
I've been saying this for years , same with Herzog and Gaffard they all suck and have ego power trips all the time it's annoying af when ppl glaze them
@@drunkenmmamaster419you’ve also said mazzagatti wasn’t a horrible ref, so who do you think is a good ref?
(If not more) is an understatement. He has some of the worst calls in history. (Rockhold vs Weidman) if you need rememberance.
He has won ref of the year for like 13 years I'd say he's done a pretty damn good job I know he had won like 7 straight and lost out to Big John McCarthy for like 3 years then started winning it again all refs mess up sometimes but he does ref alot of fights and most of the time does it right
"It is all over " man I really got sick of hearing that after years of it. Lol😂
Pretty good job!! Subbed
Herb dean is a good referee, He was trying to give him a chance..
More cornerman need to throw in the towel more imo these refs are incompetent and go on power trips all the time
They should have a button ringside for another ref to hit to stop the fight. If a ref is fucking up and everyone else knows they could step in.
Bispinĝ was circling 'in ' to Hendos power side not away from it
Yeah and you can’t blame Mario for not stopping he do throwing that last shot
These videos are flipped
You know they're flipped to avoid copyright strikes right ?😂
@drunkenmmamaster419 Lol it makes no difference, I watched that fight that night , Bisping was breaking rule no1 in boxing ,circling the wrong way
I've seen street fights and unfortunately when I was younger prison fights where I jumped in and pushed one fighter off because the other guy was out, faster than some of these referee stoppages. People can literally die when taking blows or chokes they cannot defend. Surprised Herb Dean was one of these refs. He was a mma fighter himself a long time ago.
I mean the refs are kinda right.... Everyone else has the luxury of monitors and slow mo replay... different story when it's you in there getting crucified for stopping it early stopping it late it's a different story
Nah bro. That’s not how it works. At the point that announces and the fighters coaches are yelling for you to stop it then stop the damn fight. The fight should be automatically stopped when the corner calls for it. That’s a point when there’s 1 extra punch or 1 second extra on a hold. But when the fighter who is winning is refusing to hit his opponent then what? He didn’t have a monitor or replay. It’s even more intense for him and he could tell the opponent can’t fight back. There’s atleast 5 examples in this video where someone is just laying in a corner covered up for 30-60 seconds without defending or fighting back
@@toptiertech7291 don't get me wrong MOST of those stoppages were horrendous.....I'm just saying it's different when it's YOUR reputation on the line....Herb Dean for the most part is a GREAT ref.... But those couple clips make him look inept
@@PHELTHY49plus20 but if you watch a video by mma on point about best ref stoppages Herb has made amazing calls. He often sees injuries that others miss
A fighter should also know better. Its called "Fight IQ"
If the fighter knows the opponent is knocked out and continues the ground and pound because the ref doesn't stop it then the fighter is a dummy.
Adrenaline can play a part in it
Im sure you've been in so many mma fights Lil bro 😂
Hell nah. In a fighter's mind, I dont think he can tell or know if the opponent is out or not. I mean why Risk them coming back and you losing especially when a win or a loss can define your career from here on out? Also they are just doing their job and the ref literally tells them to continue until he stops it in the beginning of the fights
Mario and Steve never shld see a professional ring again.
Where n the fuk are the corner people for these fighters who are getting beat nearly to death? How about throwing in the towel? Wtf?
Chad Jordan got two W's that night
Kevin Costner’s new movie looks like it belongs on tubi or Pluto! lolhahaha
For all the late stoppages.. I know it's always on the Ref to make the call beause he has the best view out of anyone but how come you never see MMA trainers throw in the towel. You rarely see it. That kid that was in the triangle choke/armbar. Wtf was his corner doing for that whole time?
26:25 I get the ref made a major mistake here but commentary is acting like they didnt just think she was aight. Seriously less they were saying she was fine ~10-30 sec beforehand and now they're trying to crucify the ref. At least show SOME self awareness here.
Well that wa 1:11:57 s me at hr 1:10 lol I actually bought tickets from the big kansas to watch these fights and got a call to fight the day of the show it a blast next fight 31 sec tko I had time to train
Of all referee's Herb Dean is considered one of the best, BUT he's the only one who lets his ego get in the way of calls. I can remember 3 different fights and i believe you may have showed a couple here, this was a long video, where a fighter tries to do the right thing and walk away and Herb always lets his ego get in the way by making them continue fighting because HE didn't stop the fight. I have watched every single UFC event, every PPV, every fight night from 1 until now, I have not missed picking UFC fights since online gambling became legal in Ohio and i think Herb sucks. I also think my opinion matters when it don't lol
Herb dean sucks now dude needs to retire
The refs should get put in the same positions with the fighters after they recover 😂 would b one of the highest rated shows ever
My Brother, I truly hope all is well with you today. I recently got a travel size of Arquiste Sydney Rock Pool. I absolutely LOVE this fragrance. It's just a perfect summer time scent. Coconut, mineraly, aquatic and beautiful. If summer has a scent, this is it. I love you my Brother and everything you do for ALL of us out here. Be well my friend and I will see you in the next video.
judges need some fighting experience before they start to judge because you see some are clueless but judges have it difficult to sometimes when They stop a fight in a Split of a second we often complain and sometimes we also complain if They hit one more time thats not a judge in the world who havent done something wrong in their career but remember judges in Evry Sport got complaints because people have different opinions to. But i dont complain if a judge a few times in their career wanna be sure before they stop in that split of a second. So one more hit or some submission one second longer cant decide their career if They have a few days of in 600 fights but some judges so bad that They should never been a judge it s maybe lack of fighting experience? I really dont know the anser to change it but sad if a fighter get so hurt that they can not fight more or long time recovery. But i more mad about the judges scoring system That should be way easier then a Split of a second in my opinion but in Evry fighting sport we see pure robbery again and again Thats way Worse but remember in a fight against someone you can show sports ship to like some fighters do. If you really connect and you have that power you know before they hit the ground at least some of us same whit a good submission also i think you see or feel it maybe a second before the judge you dont need to hit em or crank em 3 second s more but i get it it a dam hard decision in the fight s sometimes.
Better late than early.
Her corner could have thrown in the towel 10:23. But they didnt😮
Jones fears Hamil to this day since his loss to him.
Trolling with the vudeo thumbnail. UFC or Refs?
Why don’t they throw a towel into the ring to stop the fight?
27:29 that was a left hand doggy
You kinda sound like Kris Cyborg, no offense intended
What ever happened to a corner throwing in the towel to protect their guy?
It requires the ref to pay attention. Which these incidents show they aren't always.
@theatagamer90 agreed.. but there was no towel thrown in and any of these videos... so... question still stands, my boy
It’s not really a widely used practice in MMA, I wish it was
Hoosten Alexander
**** you dana ... he was worried about hid friend
Fatality
Velasques says his injury comes not from his opponent but from the referee.
Let's be honest. The injury came from him not tapping as it was time to tap.
If a fighter goes to sleep he did a huge blunder in MMA.
It's right that the referee has the job to protect the guys. Also from themselves. But look at what happens when they stop too early. Dana also goes rampage at them. And the fighters themselves. They are tuned to look for the slightest signs that tell them the fight can go on and are supposed to let it go on.
That risk is a simple result from how the referees are treated.
30:45 that stoppage was okay!
REFS WITH EGOS NEED TO FIX UP. GREAT VIDEO, THANKS
Cecil peoples had no business in mma along with that chick
@1:24:00. Wow ,possibly the scariest clip
😮
The corner people who were in on the Cyborg fight who didn't stop the fight themselves should be barred.
I will love to see that this fighters who cant fight anymore becouse of judges, gets pay,and pay good from judges paycheks ,,,ok ,Mario is disaster,but herb dean also got early stopages, which noubody mention,and its well known that man is on weed non stop,24/7 ,,,they call him Like top 3 judges in world,but ,if you look at his early stopages,and late ones who are more dangerus,he should bee fired ASP
Early stoppages can suck for your career momentum but they won’t cost you your life
On weed 😂😂😂😂
@@drunkenmmamaster419 yea haha ,,,are you see him get high and admit that some fights he was high as hell ,,,on joe podcast ,,also big john is admit ,qwote,; that idiot who comes on fights high he need water between rounds more then fighters; ? Newer hear that ,,,go search buddy ,and ,dont bee suprised hehe
MMA should institute a 15 second rule If you are locked in a submission and after 15 seconds you are not close to escaping this submission it should just be an automatic submission. 15 seconds is a long time to be in a submission to put that in perspective that's enough time to pass out twice from a choke. Still get some adequate time to either let their opponent tie her out or tap but if they're still locked in automatic submission that way there's only so much damage in in-apped ref can do in the situation of a submission being locked in for too long
Great idea but why not a stand up instead
What about Ortega and Volk?
Idk if we can trust inept refs to be able to count to 15 secs lol
Something tells me that nothing "looks very tight" when Pena & DeRandamine are rolling around with each other
Jalin Turner Bobby Green was early.
I guarantee Mr i don't mute anyone muted roy Nelson
How often are these bad calls due to making sure a fight goes a certain time amount 🤔
Losing to yourself is also losing. People should credit Hamill with his win.
Henderson bisping wasnt late stoppage. Just ignorant to say that. Just beautiful justice of an unstoppable deserving
Don't have a leash has a leash
Dean corrupt 1000000000% you could never ever not stop that fight.
indians talking about mma is hilarious
Don't blame referee,blame that Dana guy for promoting this sick sport. I can bet Dana would let people kill eachother for money
