Even if the decision is to not make it a NC it's ridiculous to look at that replay and say that it didn't result in a foul. He clearly lands with his shin on Potierias neck/head as he's lying on his back lol.

I care because I need to understand how the UFC functions to game the system. If there's corruption I need to understand how it works.

@VicStrk 
Dricus is such a massive awkward tank of a middleweight with 2 cinderblocks for hands, that I have no confidence in picking him or against him, but if he grabs Michel I doubt he can get away. Maybe Michel lights him up tho, idk

Indeed how do you have cardio when you look like that? Definitely more than a few trips to Thailand to get Bangkok ready.

@gliese58i 
If it had a big effect on the outcome, I would've agreed with you. This isn't the case now though. I do agree that the ref could've given him a warning, but he didn't. Regardless of Pereira landing his chin on the side of Potieria's head, I think the outcome would've been the same.

Sure and I'm not interested in harping on about it. But it's a really bad application of rules to say "it wouldn't have mattered".
