Media What is Herb Dean doing here?

Ackmed said:
I stand corrected and will delete my earlier post criticizing Herb

Whoever made the clip that was tweeted intentionally added music to blur out the horn sounding the end of the round.

You could hear Herb saying "he tapped? I didn't see no tap!" but regardless the round was over immediately after he let go of the choke, and before the opponent punched him.

Exactly. Propaganda. "WTF DID I JUST WATCH!" It's pretty clear if you have the orginal audio.

Also, no need to delete your earlier post. You owned up to your mistake and held yourself accountable. BTW, Ackmed, I don't believe all the nasty things people say about you here on the 'Dog. Islam Makhachev is a great fighter and I applaud your passion you show in support of him. Some people will never truely know what it means to have a favorite fighter.

Stay frosty, SherBro.

Thank you sir!

I already deleted it before you replied, just felt silly for buying into the propaganda (not TS fault but whoever made the original tweet).

Thanks for finding and sharing the full fight

Dude sorta deserved the late punch for trying to win a fight by lying to the ref that his opponent tapped

Finally someone who checks the sources before just blindly believing a 15 second Twitter clip with shitty music over it.
 
Just read on Georgi Karakhanyan's wiki page that ACB released him after this lying stunt he tried to pull, despite having just signed him for a multi-fight contract (in addition to overturning his win to a NC and withholding his win-purse)

Kadyrov's promotion doesn't play around!

He then went to Bellator and has since racked up 3 wins & 4 losses there

No problem, my man. Just trying to keep the record straight. However, i disagree. It is the TS's fault. TS started this thread with the hope of riding the "Bash Whoever" wave and gaining likes. They put out edited footage without knowing the whole story in an effort to gain clout.

All said, Herb is trash and either highly incompetent or corrupt beyond belief at this point.

if you quit defending, it should be over. If you pretend to be choked out by going limp as your "defense" then you are a piece of crap. If you get upset and punch your opponent because of your stupid choke "defense" then you are double piece of crap.

Pretty much.
 
What is that dude doing? It's clear Herb intervened, whether justified or not, and his opponent is engaged with the ref and he thinks the fight os still on at that mention?
 
Once during a roll I had the guy I was rolling with in a arm triangle. I didn’t really squeeze it, just put it on and tried to have the technique right. Put my forehead on the mat and waited. The guy did his best dead fish impersonation like he didn’t move or resist at all. After a few sec I let go and looked at him as he was laying there staring the ceiling.

”you ok buddeh?”
”i’m good”
”u didn’t defend at all?”
”i tried to keep calm and survive”
”Uh okay. Go again?”

<JagsKiddingMe>

Sometimes people don’t respond while you choke them and you don’t know why (Like Lawler against Askren). What do you do there? Keep squeezing and hope he doesn’t die?
<{JustBleed}><Goldie11>
Keep squeezing and hope he dies?

<{JustBleed}><{JustBleed}>:meow:

Give him a way out and let go? Perhaps all a part of his master plan?

<EdgyBrah>

During a pro fight the responsibility is on the ref to stop it. He should check the arm of the fighter that’s being choked out before stopping if he’s actually out or not…

In training that responsibility is solely yours, to defend and tap before you go out or stop the choke if you think there’s a chance your buddeh is out like a light.

Did this guy get DQ'd for hitting his opponent after the bell?
 
I've always seen him as shit.

The worst calls I've seen are from him, I never got why people call him the best ref.

This is what actually happened. Georgi claims Nagibin was either tapping or out. Herb reaches in to check and Georgi releases. The other guy pops right up and was in no trouble. Herb says; "I saw no tap". This is all as the bell rings. After the bell rings, while Herb is arguing, Nagiben dives in for the sucker punch.

Herb did nothing wrong here.

This seems to fit.

I'd like to hear when the bell sounded though.

yup. but 2 weeks later they changed it to a no-contest

https://www.mmafighting.com/2018/11...razy-meeting-with-acb-officials-before-firing

apparently the dude who got ktfo'd after the bell was being a douchebag before the fight, but the main issue with him is that he sold wolf tickets to the referee trying to manipulate him into stopping the fight. the commission didnt like that one bit so they took his DQ win away, disqualified him as well for trying to cheat the referee, and then ruled it a no contest

i think they both got fired after that. nagibin did for sure. oh yeah actually after reading that article its pretty clear that georgi got shitcanned too

Is this recent? Not a good look so soon after the whole Rothwell incident.

no, it happened 2 years ago

its fairly safe to say that these two guys dont like each other, and the beef definately was not squashed after that one ended

Amazing... that is really bad. What the fuck was herb looking at?

Herb was once a reliable ref, one of the best. And now he is so bad he is actually a danger to the fighters. And I thought that refs got better with age and experience..

literally got rid of their best color commentator for the very worst ref. insanity
Click to expand...

Dan was not a good commentator at all. he was too buusy promoting himself and calling everything an early stoppage.
The only worse thing is DC and Bisping together at once.
It should be Rogan, Goldy and Anik. Rogan for random yelling, Goldy for the lols and Anik to be a middle ground.
