The bias has nothing to do with race or even nationality (an englishman fighting in usa) its purely down to whether you believe xc were trying to protect their poster boy or not. the irony is in the olden days they would have taken a hobo of the street cleaned him up and got him the ring to get ko'ed by the star this time the retired hobo is the star @cw0207 Great comment.

How about that bullshit stoppage during the last UFC 85. The VERA fight. BULLSHIT. This ref sucks.PERIOD. Regardless if Kimbo was being hit very hard or kind of hard, he could not defend himself when Thompson had him in the reverse cricifix against the cage. Same thing happened to B.J Penn VS Hughes. B.J wasn't getting hurt or even hit every punch, but he could NOT DEFEND HIMSELF. Rules are Rules. Sleep tight. This guy is so full of SHIT. How about that bullshit stoppage during the last UFC 85.

I thought he was average until the Kimbo fight. The one that topped it off for me was Werdum vs Vera. Yeah Vera was mounted but protected himself well, that was all he could do at that point. Dan should have let it go longer as Vera was never hurt or close to being hurt, he was just mounted. In some cases like this if you fight back, you will get hit which is why Vera elected to cover and he did it well. The only Ref who calls fights more prematurely would be Herb Dean who is actually winning the poll for best referee off to the right. Are you kidding me!!! For all of you Kimbo fans, we all knew that he did not have a ground game and he showed the world against Thompson. I don't think even the great Bas Ruetten can get this guy up to speed. Give him a real opponent and it is game over. Thompson has zero ground game and took Kimbo down with ease with the help of his weight advantage. Had Thompson had any skills on the ground, he would have submitted Kimbo in the first round. I must give Thompson credit as his chin is usually suspect but not in the Kimbo fight. Kimbo obviously has no gas tank and it showed badly in the second. Once he fights a reputable opponent he is toast. In a year we won't even be talking about Kimbo. This guy sucks!
