MMA judging might be the easiest profession in the world

[welcometohavoc]

1) You need zero qualifications
2) You can goof off during work hours and not even pay attention
3) You don't even need to be able to see or critically think, so the blind and mentally handicap people are in high demand
4) No matter how much you fuck up, you'll never get reprimanded
5) You get free ringside seats to every MMA event

It's a political athletic commission position. All about nepotism and connections.

It's why no one gets fired, because you fire one such person for incompetence, all the political hires are in danger. They protect each other.

unfortunately the people judging MMA still don't know shit about It for the most part.

It should be retired fighters or something

 

[TheIrishPsycho]

Nah,

Sherdog forum mod.

Great money
Free pussy
Power
Fame

And you don't even have to follow the rules you sometimes enforce.

You could pick three random fans at every event to serve as judges and I guarantee we would see better decisions for the most part.

 

[THEfightsAREfixed]

Sherdog mods and MMA refs have a lot in common tbh

 

[faustian]

Yeah but it would kinda suck to have to get the requisite lobotomy first

 

[iwillbebackin3weeks]

mma "journalist" = easiest job.

you just have to know how to use twitter.

Probably a good job to have if you want to sleep with some WMMA fighters too.

"4) No matter how much you fuck up, you'll never get reprimanded"

That's the worst part. We see so many godawful scorecards, but never hear about repercussions. Because they don't exist.

LOL @ Holland getting a 10-8 round.

WTF

 

[Pressure Project]

It's all about the "significant strikes" now, bro. Fight Metrics is all you need.

Of course the only 'media' members that pick against Borg are from the fake part of Sherdog.

Please shut down that section and just link www.Sherdog.com to the forums.

Give the media passes to the best Sherbros on the forums who will go cover the events - i.e. me and my buddies.

Basically summed up as there is no accountability, which sort of applies to all major sports. Refs and judges have never had to answer for their decisions.
