Around SBN: Ryder Hesjedal Wins Giro d'Italia

Silvas "back of the head" disqualification .gif

I don't know if this has all ready been posted, but I couldn't see it anywhere. Anyhow, this .gif clearly shows that there was only one hit to the back of the head (Maybe two if this gif missed any of the punches), so even if Mario yelled "do not hit the back of the head" multiple times before stopping it, he was wrong. One blow doesn't equate to being disqualified in my book.

Definitely at least one shot on the back of the head. A second one which is debatable.

But there were a few on the borderline shots to the back of the head which some may argue it is not illegal or illegal. Near back of the head, side shots that took out Couture, Machida.

Its basically the same thing as Jones vs. Hamill

this fight will forever be seen as a win for silva. If anything, this got him alot of attention plus he got his win bonus..good for him.

Right to the back of his head….sure it wasn’t a fight ender but certainly illegal

Agreed . . . may or may not have been back of the head, but there’s no way you can definitely say it was one or the other.

Silva went retard and punched him in the back of the head repeatedly

He got a DQ loss but the UFC is treating it as a win. He’s learned a valuable lesson about being a retard. End of story.

I will never pick another british fighter to beat Barboza. I’m a complete idiot for picking Etim. I lost due to one of the most vicious wheel kick ko’s i’ve ever seen. When i’m at home alone when my wife is not there, i occasionally finger my own asshole, whilst not even jerking it. I just love the feeling of it in my butt. I’m a homo. I suck dick for bus fair then walk home. I will never bet Cruz Jackson again, he is too amazing. I love him and am so gay for him and his stolen bike. I would like to form a formal request of fellatio for him because thats how much i’m on his dick.

false

the gif clearly shows that 99% of the punches landed were legal and that silva was purposely avoiding the back of the head

So in your opinion something that's illegal is less illegal if it's interspersed by legal moves?

So if GSP kneed a guy to the shoulder, the chest, the head and the shoulder, it’s totally fine.

the fact of the matter is

if u follow the mohawk method, then even the “illegal” punch was legal. their is no concrete system and this isnt as cut and dry as one of Vitors many back of the head ko’s. this is a fringe punch that cud go either way and the ref freaked out. Silva doesnt fucking speak english, how wud he know what Yamatard was saying

Whatever, steves the best there is!

Live, while it was happening those shots all looked to be to the back of the head! I was shocked that Joe called him out like that! In all fast paced sports refs are not good enough, video reply needs to be brought in. I thought steve did a good job with what he had, he protected the fighter and made a judgement call, this was not the worst call in MMA not even close. I had no problem with it, buddy wasnt making sure he wasnt hitting him in the back of the head a few of those shots did hit the back of the head! To me it looked like he was just wildly throwing werever they landed didnt matter. steves one of the best, no prob with that stoppage or call, shit happens. What he saw was close to what happened!

Pretty sure Mario was the ref in the Belfort-Akiyama fight

And Akiyama definitely got hit with shots to the back of the head but was not called….
