They'll use any excuse.
Especially the newer venue sites.

Agree w/ USMC & Lynx that a lot of fans will just boo at anything. Can't really stop it. I don't think it's the kind of fans who would hang out on Tapology, or Bloody Elbow, or the UG, or wherever. Rather it's probably just casual fans who aren't really thinking about the health and safety of fighters. They're just thinking about being entertained for a night out.

Yeah CB was not right after Munoz's right hand. Great call by Mario, no reason for a fighter to take unnecessary punishment and CB would've had it coming. Munoz has awesome GnP. Atleast CB can get back into the cage sooner after this loss rather than taking a layoff due to a nasty concussion.

The referee's job is to protect the fighter and Mario Yamasaki did his job, CB Dollaway is always complaining. Claimed he never tapped to Amir Sadollah and now claims he wasn't knocked out by Mark Munoz. Shut up and take a loss like a man.

When he lost to Amir Sadollah, he did try to hold off on the tap. In him mind, at the time, I'm sure he felt that he held off (happened in a split second), thus the reaction he had. But even if it was only a 3/4 tap, he still would have been in that bad position and would have tapped moments later anyway.
All-n-all, complaints about ref stoppages are common, complaints about tapping are not so common... but in Dollaway's case both times were "close" (for a lack of a better word)... the emotion, the adrenaline... I don't knock Dollaway for his reaction.
