Shevchenko Dominates ending via RNC while Ref Mario Yamasaki Refuses to Intervene – White Calls For Firing

Shevchenko Dominates ending via RNC while Ref Mario Yamasaki Refuses to Intervene – White Calls For Firing

 

 

 

UFC Fight Night 125 was fairly uneventful. The absence of big names barring Lyoto Machida and Valentina Schevchenko made the event somewhat subdued – that is until the main event.

Schevchenko completely dominated:

 

 

And ultimately closed an RNC:

 

Dana White was fairly appalled by the ref’s performance:

Priscilla Cachoeira, you showed so much heart and toughness in that fight. I’m honored to have you fight in the UFC. Unfortunately the ref is there to protect you and Mario DID NOT do that. This isn’t his first disgusting performance in the octagon. Another unfortunate thing is that i can’t do anything about I️t only the Brazilian commission can and i am hoping after this scary, incompetent showing he hopefully will never set foot in that Octagon again. Strikes landed was 230-3.

This is far from the first time Yamasaki came under fire – he previously ended a fight with a RNC in place but no tap:

Yamasaki: ‘I’m a 5th Degree Black Belt. He Went Limp’

Should The Ref Be Allowed To stop The Match Prior To Tapping/Going To Sleep?
