The guy isnt an all seing sage. Its tough too see in real time if it was headbutt or not. Replays should be used way more often

Yeah it's tricky because if Holland had gotten up and KO'd Daukaus, they'd have let that stand. But it was the wrong decision to let the fight continue in the first place, and the headclash clearly changed the outcome. You can't punish Kevin for defending himself.

A messy way to get there, but it should have been a NC anyway.

Johny Walker is a big Godzilla,but Santos is on a mission to slice him in half.

Well whoever's call it was it was the right one. Dan should have stopped the fight when there was a headbutt but hindsight is 20/20 and it must've been hard to know what caused Holland to drop in the heat of the moment.

By the way the fight should have been stopped without considering the ability of Holland to fight, should be treated similarly to an eye poke or guts shot. Give him more time to recover, check if he is actually able to fight, and let them fight right after the foul, not weeks later

What if it was Holland who rallied and came back to finish Daukaus, will it still be a NC?

I never understood why people get so upset with down votes from losers who'd rather read every forum post then watch the fights.

A foul is a foul regardless of intent. Dan saying he started to defend himself so I didn’t stop after seeing the foul is just ********

This is similar to Darren Stewart's debut, a headbutt that was followed by a TKO a awhile later. I think it was originally a win for Stewart that was later overturned to a NC. That seems to be a good precedent for the result of this fight. 

@Cheeseball just saw your comment, hope this answers your question, it's a pretty similar situation if I remember correctly

No as Holland wouldn’t have got an advantage from the situation. I think the rule is that if a foul leads to a fight ending sequence it’s a no contest. So if Holland won it would have counted since the headbut wouldn’t have led to a fight ending sequence

Walker moves crazy and Santos blew out both knees and hasn't moved the same since.   Will that be a factor?  I thought so when I threw out my vote.
