No, but they know if they piss Dana off they will get criticized and thus get less work. It’s all about the money!
I like both fighters, more of a Yan fan, but if I felt he lost I would say it. I thought it was a prwtty clear 29 28 fight for Yan, expecting one judge to give it 30, 27 to Yan. That was a really bad decision imo. I feel they should be able to review fight outcomes like this.
We get it though, you lost money on Yan and are salty because of it. Round 1 and round 3 to O’Malley 10-9 and 10-9, round 2 to Yan 10-9. Let’s hear how you scored it.

the 2nd and 3rd were really easy to judge in his favour even if the 1st was close.
I am legit sad for him, always on the wrong end of decisions that imo he clearly edged.
People thinking the ufc fixed the fight and scorecards are fucking deluded. Yan should have won. Judges are human and got it wrong. End of story.

Or they could have suggested to the judges if it’s competitive, give it to the one guy.
Um, after I finished my career as a professional boxer I was employed by the NYSAC as an inspector & a judge under Randy Gordon & Billy Backus. I was a longtime judge for both the PKA & WKA. I officiated 13 world title fights.
So, yeah. What are your credentials again?

sad state of affairs tho after so many years because 0 accountability, they ruin great fights imo
Im ok with it. I had it 29-28 Yan but the 1st was close and O’Malley delivered damage in the 3rd.
O’Malley got screwed against Chito.
Yan crapped the bed against Sterling in the rematch.
So I’m good with it.

No wonder you were fired, you can’t count. I asked you how you scored it Mr. Punchy, not how long you were an inspector or judge in kickboxing. This is MMA genius, not Kickboxing.

Reading comprehension goes a long way, friend. I stated in my original post that I scored it 30-27 for Yan.

You don’t think judges have ever been influenced to fix fights? Sports gambling was born in Vegas founded under the mob.
Too bad it’s an MMA fight and not a wrestling match. He didn’t do jack shit with his takedowns or control time. Nothing.

His shoulder looks broken, not dislocated.
I wasn’t fired, numbnuts. I retired to work for boxing promoters like Don King, Top Rank, Main Events. Mike Acri, Don Elbaum & many others. How do you make your living?
