The only reason he said he was OK to fight again itīs because he thought they would have given Marquadt the win. If he knew that Marquadt would be disqualified if he couldnīt continue fighting, I think he wouldnīt wanna fight because he was rocked big time.
Even though he kept on fighting Marquadt broke the rules two more times and still didnīt win. Thales moves up, Marquadt moves down, and no rematch.

Good post I completely agree. Thales legs looked very shaky when he was saying he was okay. That was a much bigger illegal knee then Irvin and Larson took and they couldnt continue.
