Paying for sports on tv.... I understand why bars do it, but for the rest of the world - I don't get it.  Everything is free on-line.

Among a million other links available. Might want to install Ad Block Plus first .... . https://adblockplus.org/ but other than that, what's the problem?  Don't have an HDMI chord long enough to reach the big screen tv?  I do.

I don't know. I just watch all that stuff on a twitch stream. It's way better than some shady unsecure website.

Out of respect for Mike I'm not publicly posting any links but I have one that I've used for about a year that works really well and doesn't have popups or anything.  If anyone can't find a stream let me know and I'll PM you a link.

I agree, I was watching it on twitch until it crapped out on me. Strike knows his stuff though.

Why does the ref keep warning about the fingers?

Are you asking what the infraction is, or do you not think there was an infraction?   Eye pokes have been an issue in MMA for a long time and the new rules specify how they can be oriented.

What's the infraction? His hands are open to block I haven't seen his fingers near Aldos eyes.

They don't have to be near the opponent's eyes, or the opponent for that matter.  By that time it's too late. 

Quote

In the standing position, a fighter that moves their arm(s) toward their opponent with an open hand,fingers pointing at the opponent’s face/eyes,will be a foul. Referees are to prevent this dangerous behavior by communicating clearly to fighters. Fighters are directed to close their fists or point their fingers straight up in the air when reaching toward their opponent.

I see. I'm new to the sport, but it seems like the ref was overly concerned about his fingers. Either way that was a good fight. I was surprised it took the ref that long to call it.

Yeah, I thought the stoppage was way late.  I understand wanting to let fighters fight but it was clear Aldo had nothing left to offer and he was taking needless damage. 

The finger thing is because for a number of years fighters would have their fingers wide open and pointed, ostensibly to be prepared to grapple, but often it just seemed like it was used to keep their opponent from coming at them out of fear of getting poked in the eye.  I can't tell you how many fights I've seen stopped because an eye poke caused vision issues for one of the fighters.  So a couple years ago they tweaked the rules.  The refs are pretty proactive on that issue now to just avoid it happening.  It's definitely a bit subjective, and some refs are more vocal than others, but it's not uncommon for refs to warn fighters about it.
