According to his team, Josh Emmett will appeal tonight’s loss. “Absolutely.”

2 illegal elbows then an illegal knee. Should be a no contest
They will appeal and absolutely nothing will happen like usual.
Good luck with that because the knee did not land and he was moving when the elbows landed.
Good luck, they basically patted him on the back with a bonus. You’d think if they felt it was marred by controversy they’d give it to someone else.
BigTedBear -Good luck with that because the knee did not land and he was moving when the elbows landed.
Also, its not like appeals ever do anything
Ofcourse they are going to appeal. They are all emotional that “the best fighter in the world that no one knows about” got knocked out. You can’t blame them for being bias. But emotion and bias aside, that knee CLEARLY missed.
An excuse for his loss is all this is. Nothing will get overturned. The knee missed.
What rules were they under last night? I thought Emmett had on3 hand off the ground when they knee hit?
MMARAIDER -2 illegal elbows then an illegal knee. Should be a no contest
This shit about the elbows is ridiculous. No one ever has an issue with behind the head strikes. And those weren't even behind the head.
Non issue imo
Elbows were completely legal. Knee missed.
For what? run it back in two years when Emmett's eye is feeling better, the same result if not worse.
Everything that has been explained is that all elbows were legal. Knee was not a factor.
ABCTT_HeHitsMeBecauseHeLovesMe -Elbows were completely legal. Knee missed.
This. Easy to see. Good job by the ref imo
Is there a worse ref than 'Big Dan'? He's always been shit, will always be shit, fucking clown.
Doesn’t he have multiple orbital fractures? Pretty sure none of those “illegal strikes” caused the finish to the fight.

The knee landed
This win will be overturned
illegal elbows and knee and shin.
The knee is the only point of contention, the elbows were absolutely legal. Even if it did hit the back of the head, it's still legal, because he turned his head away from the strike. If you turn away from a strike, and it hits you in the back of the head, that's legal.
