Anthony Johnson vs Kevin Burns

Why is all hell not breaking loose over this. Not about the playground, but the fact that the UFC never overturned it after review. I mean, had it been a poor decision I understand there being doubt, but this was a fight with repeated eye gauging and a man jumping and screaming (could've been permanently blinded) after a confirmed gauge.

I don't understand this and am still outraged at it. Some (probably most) see it as a dead topic, but I see a guy getting shafted because he is not yet a top name.

And not necessarilly on the same topic, a palm stike is not fingers wide open and foreward. A palm strike is fingers in and palm foreward, so all the feel sorry cuz I can't jab or I'll break my hand is completely irrelivant.

I'm still completely pissed. It's like a guy getting Mike Tysoned in the ring and the ref says "if you want to quit you lose"



Yea, Im still ticked at this. UFC cant fix it now, only the commission can and they are to stupid to not overturn it. I want to see a boxing match where a guy knees his opponent til he cant get up and the ref counts to ten and awards the cheaters. That would be the comparison with Anthony Johnson.

Johnson is on his way up the WW ladder regardless though and Im sure he will get better fights ahead and Joe Silva will see his last fight as a positive for Johnson as he was winning every round./
