Somebody please go back and watch that shit, i am watching a shitty quality stream but it sure as hell looked to me like Kos was on his knees going for the TD and Lawler landed a knee. Its driving me nuts.

I think a lot of people don't really like Kos including the refs. I do believe it could have gone on slightly longer because I would have very much liked to see Robbie unleash more. :)

Good win for Robbie, give em Thiago Alves, Story, or Nick Diaz again after he loses against GSP.

DAE think koschek fight was stopped prematurely?

He wasn't out at all. Had full use of his faculties. Got right up after the fight was stopped.

Herb Dean is officially the worst ref in mma. He makes mazzagati look good.

going a little far with the last part of your post.

But I agree that the fight was called early. Koscheck was hurt, but he recovered well.

And Toxic Im still not sure about that knee, the angle is making it hard to know for sure

Kos looked out for second, then another punch landed and he came back just as Herb stopped it.

A bit premature, but I doubt it'd of changed the outcome, just saved Kos from an even more vicious beating.

Good to see Kos lose and Robbie win :D Diaz/Lawlor 2 after Diaz loses to GSP! :D

Premature stoppage, worse than Dan vs Fedor (coming from a Kos #hater").
Herb has been screwing a lot lately, those accolades Dana sent him derailed the guy...

WOW..I was totally Wrong about this fight!!!! KOS is done and I love it... Cut the spoiled Brat Dana!!!! Kos just never really evolved enough.

I still can't believe he got his butt-kicked by a washed up Robbie Lawler... Man I'm so happy right now:thumb01:

you can say it was an early stoppage, but the way Kos was defending himself,, or NOT defending heimself I should say, Lawler would end up smashing him into the ground in a few more seconds.
 
#98 ·
Yep, it should have been left a bit longer so Robbie could have put him out properly.

Was a decent stoppage in my mind. Kos was just sitting there blocking none. If Herb lets it go until he is out then everyone says it was late.

People get on refs way too much. You try to make the perfect stoppage while 2 guys are in a cage pounding on eachother at full speed.

Was a fine stoppage. Herb saved Kos from going out. Simple as that.

I agree with this. When I watched the fight I thought it was slightly early but I think Lawler would have still finished him off, Kos wasn't defending. Also People need to remember that Herb doesn't get to watch the slomo replay. Even if it was slightly early he still does a better job then anyone else in the business.

I would be surprised if they cut Kos.
He's not a boring fighter like Fitch. Also everyone hates him so they love to watch him lose. He's like a pro wrestling heel. Not to mention this is his first loss against a non-main event level guy in a long time

Just rewatched the fight and Toxic was right about the knee being illegal. I gotta see a slow motion gif to make sure but it looks illegal in real time. And it didn't just graze him, it decked him. It's what rocked him in the first place.
