@jedigoodman This is great for Boxers 🥊 because they’ll have an additional choice and options for their path to success. I agree with Executive Officer Andy Foster and a lot of the silent majority who actually have read the proposed act and the upside to it. It’s all about the Boxers.

Watching a @ufc fight, you may have noticed @RefMikeBeltran - he's the ref with the unmistakable beard! Mike grew up here in East LA, is a sheriff's deputy... and he's also a huge @LAKings fan! @chrishayre has Mike's story at 5:45/10:45pm on @SportsCentralLA on @kcalnews tonight!

Down here in Cancun at Jiu-Jitsu Overdose people are trying to catch submissions. Tonight on the mat BMac and I caught something else. I think we are gonna keep it and name him @RefMikeBeltran. 😂

Finally, the 12 to 6 elbow rule has been eliminated and the grounded opponent rule has been changed.

Andy Foster does it again.

It is inherently bad for the sport and unbelievably embarrassing to hear people who supposedly know the sport of MMA smear the actions of @HerbDeanMMA as if he was responsible for the knockout of @JamahalH @ufc 300.
Let’s make this as clear as possible for everyone. Herb was perfect in the actions he took in allowing @AlexPereiraUFC to call off the timeout for the kick to the groin he took and then keep the action of the fight in motion. The fighter who is fouled by a strike to the groin is in control of how much time they need to take to sufficiently recover from the foul. They have up to 5 minutes of time if they need it. Many times fighters do not want a stop in the action because they feel they have gained momentum in the fight and do not want to give any time to their opponent. Everything Herb Dean did was exactly what we would train any official to do under the same circumstances. Luckily we had an official in the cage who understands the rules and the mechanics needed to successfully manage a world title fight instead of the talking heads that guess at what is right or wrong.
