if "a little cheating" is okay because your job is on the line, then why not let a coach slip his fighter some brass knuckles in between the rounds??

Colby looks like his head doesn't have enough skin or something. It looks too tight.

Never said it's ok, just that it is smart from his perspective.

RDA didn't want to give up that advantage I guess.

how is it "smart"? if he had another ref, or if this ref just wasn't sleeping on the job tonight, he could have had points taken away or even risked a DQ or NC...then he gets nothing but half his fight purse. It's idiotic at best lol

It's smart because refs are way too lenient with cheating, they warn and warn and do all they can to avoid docking points when in reality the warnings should have been issued in the locker rooms prior and points should be deducted more aggressively until fighters stop cheating so much.

Yeah, honestly it should be YOUR advantage if your opponent is cheating, so long as the ref is awake.
