7/25/2008 - Anthony Johnson Robbed with TKO Loss to Kevin Burns
Posted in Unspecified


I´ve seen many questionable decisions in my day but the last UFC fight night had to be the worst I have ever seen. Anthony "Rumble" Johnson and Kevin Burns put on a very good show. The fight remained competitive and action packed but that I poke was outrageous. However, the TKO call by Steve Mazagati was even more outrageous.

 

I´ll be back with more details about the fallout from this very controversial decision.




Anthony Johnson has decided to appeal the outcome of the fight. More than a few people who witnessed the fight believed that the decision was complete bullshit. There was booing from the crowd after the decision was announced.


However, I feel that the real shame is that Kevin Burns repeatedly and flagrantly poked him in the eye. The strikes were open hand blows directly to the eye. As a matter of fact Anthony Johnson underwent surgery to repair damage to his retina. Props to Johnson for the way that he carried himself throughout the ordeal. He showed real class.


BTW, here is a picture of Anthony´s eye after the fight.
