UFC.com Article On Retirement Of "Big" John McCarthy

It was the perfect going away gift for a referee • Saturday’s lightweight war between Roger Huerta and Clay Guida. But like all great ‘third men’, John McCarthy • who retired as an active referee following last weekend’s main event - was noticeable by being noly noticeable, making all the right moves and all the right calls, a fitting end to a 13 year journey that saw McCarthy become as much a part of the UFC as the great fighters who have graced its Octagon.

Gonna miss you BJM

I am very saddned by the news of Big Johns Retirement i think ill go out and buy his shirt now just to show my loyalty to the best referee in any sport in the history of ever.

The big man has been there from the start if memory serves me correctly - he will be missed big time.

Not a bad idea, where do you pick one of those bad boys up?

BIG John was the best Ref for 13 years and they did nothing to honor him @ his last Fight???? Dana is a Bum....
