Herb blew the call.

At least in the JZ-Green fight he did.

I'm interested to see this. Apparently JZ should've won by sub, and Sherdog gave him all 3 rounds but Green was shocked that he didn't get the deciision

think there is a vid somewhere?

This just goes to show for people who get on Mazzagatti, that even the most reputable referees make HUGE mistakes in the cage. Maz may fuck up more than Herb Dean, but he does not deserve to be singled out the way he does when he's not stand out bad compared to most officials...people need to come clean and admit that they only hate Maz because Dana does.

the only fight I really have a problem with involving Maz is Bones-Hamill. I truly thought Hamill was in the midst of being seriously long term hurt, and that was b4 the 12-6 elbows.

People unfailry get on Big Dan too.

Although fans watching from home didn't know it, Dean's stoppage was actually the second controversial call he made on Saturday night. In an un-televised undercard bout between Bobby Green and JZ Cavalcante, some fans thought Green had tapped out while Cavalcante had him in a choke. In reality, Dean says, the motion some fans thought was tapping was actually Green signaling to Dean that he was still conscious and not in danger of passing out from the choke.

"It was a very clear thumbs up," Dean said. "I got down close to the mat so I could see his face, made some effort to communicate with him, and he gave me a thumbs-up, clear as day."

What I hate about Bones-Hamill is the injury that stopped the fight was a dislocated shoulder and not some injury resulting from the illegal blows. The reason that Hammil was not able to continue had nothing to do with the illegal elbows.
