I agree Doerkson was out before Macarthy stopped the fight. I was like...Stop it already.

Agreed, and in hindsight, even that one doesn't look so bad.

Nahhh. It wasn't bad. I think it was very ethical that John allowed Doerskson every oppertunity to turn it around.

Besides. Joe was continue to better himself. When he stopped Big John got in there. Probably one of the better stops I have seen. Good eye by big john.

Awww, was it too TV-MA for you? If you turn the station to Nickelodeon, I'm sure there's some SpongeBob episodes you can watch that won't give you as many nightmares. Ok, little one?

3. BJM recognized that a fighter able to fight through that situation and actually stand was not out of the fight.

4. By the time he got to his feet he took some more shots and went back down. This is where BJM takes a hard look then stops the fight.

Sorry but it didn't go on too long,

WTF are you going to do, stop the fight when a fighter is getting back to his feet in order to defend himself. Sorry that fight was not stopped too late, it was the correct amount of time.
Agreed... to the TS, STFU TUF NUB

He stopped it at the right time, it was a Mazzagatti moment (though Steve stopped Condit/Larson too early much like the Hansen/Ireland fight I believe he reffed).
