I love Dana, so old school<3

Yeah Mazzagatti was also in the Velasquez/Rothwell fight right before Shogun/Rua, and stopped that fight at a really bad time I thought...Yeah Rothwell had been getting his ass whooped, but I don't agree with the timing of the stoppage at all. Rothwell was actually getting up when Mazzagatti stepped in.

Re: UFC 104... Shogun Robbed?
Just finished watching it after recording it last night. Sure Rua did good, but you can't take the belt by doing good. You need domination all rounds, or a finish. Rua did neither.
If it were a plain old vanilla fight, it would be a toss up. The announcing was biased as hell. I would watch Machita land a kick and then two head shots - and the two talking douch bags would talk about what a great leg kick rua landed. It was comical.
Also, when you are going to give away the end result, please dont do it in the damn subject line. Throw a spoiler alert in the subject line so that people who are planning to watch it can turn their eyes till they get a chance to do so.
On the Rothwell fight, I agreed with the stoppage, he was in bad shape and although he did stand up, his face was in the open getting hammered at about the time the ref committed mentally to stop it. The stand up occurred a moment later.
GO ANTHONY JOHNSON - always fun to watch (aside from the time the finger went into his eye)

Best UFC ref ever, haven't seen one yet that's anywhere near as good.

Re: UFC 104... Shogun Robbed?
Yes. In order to relieve the champion of his belt, the challenger needs to dominate every single round, or finish him.
You might be looking at how it should be. I am looking at how it really is.
EDIT: Reading my original post, I see I wasn't entirely clear, so I rewrote how it should have been written initally.
