Hex, I don't mean to be disrespectful (because i know that I am on your 'WANTED TO BAN' list) but I genuinely don't believe he lost to Carlos Condit. He lost the third and final round, yes, but anybody with any superior sense would know that it was a silly stoppage. Rory was covering up, and the referee stop the fight with THREE seconds to go in the entire fight. Ridiculous. The ref just biased towards Condit, I think it was Mario Yamaski and he is half Mexican I believe. Rory would have won the fight based on the first two rounds had Yamaski not refereed.
Oooh, race baiting. Shocking coming from you.

That fight NEVER should have been stopped and Rory should have gotten the decision win. This isnt even arguable by MMA standards since Rory was intelligently protecting himself.
That said it had absolutely nothing to do with race but instead it was just a sht ref.

Rory wouldn't have won regardless, it would have been a draw unless some moron was judging, Condit clearly did enough to earn a 10-8.

Do you not watch MMA or something??? "Unless a moron was judging it"
Judges are morons and rarely throw out 10-8 rounds so there is a good chance they would have just gone with the safe route and went 10-9. I dont think i would have argued a 10-8 or 10-9.
I'd be much more interested in a Rory vs. Carlos matchup today because of their previous encounter. Rory was able to come within inches of winning a fight against Condit then... imagine what he could do now. But then also take into account Condit's progression. Rory vs. Carlos II would be a damn good fight, and I'm hoping they'll book it after Macdonald stomps Penn.

I just watched this fight again like 2 days ago.
Rory got his face pounded in for the last round, bad enough to a point where it had to be stopped. It was far worse than something like Mighty Mouse/McCall 1 where the third round of that was scored a 10-8.

Rory got beat up but not in a single point in the fight did he stop intelligently defending himself.
So Rory is a dude on roids who got screwed by Yamasaki the half mexican that was biased to a guy named Carlos in a fight he didn't even referee.
Nice thread. Continue.
P.s
Perhaps I got confused. It seems I misremembered the fight and thought Yamaski was the ref. I apologise for my ignorance. I still believe the fight should not have been stopped with only a few seconds to go, though. Carlos only started winning halfway through the 3rd, too, so it was not a 10/8 as you call it.

I am not sure what you are implying, but I said nothing disrespectful about anybody's race. All I did was mention that there could be some cultural bias towards Carlos Condit had Mario Yamaski refereed the fight, that is all. Clearly I was wrong as KRY pointed out there was a different ref. I don't want to get into any race related discussions because I feel you are too sensitive on the matter and you are clearly looking for an excuse to ban me.
