In Pride and Dream, fighters who stalled or messed around lost 10% of their purse and up to 20%. Time for the UFC to come up with a similar penalty system in my mind. Then we'll see what's up! :crafty:
I used to think the yellow card was stupid in Pride, but after last night I have to agree with you Hanzy, they need to take points for running and stalling. If Anderson would have been taken a point in round 5 or even 4 it would have forced him to fight. As well as taking a point from Meia in the first round.
If Anderson didn't get the hint even when the entire crowd is booing him loudly, then I think the purse penalty method will do the job! There's got to be a change because this is bad for the UFC's reputation. They haven't been putting on ppvs worth the prices which they're charging lately. Also, did you guys check out Dana White's Twitter? He's going to war with a whole army of pissed off fans.:: Check out some of the stuff the fans are saying! One guy is making a FuckDanaWhite.com website which streams live UFC ppvs!:laughing: @danawhite I'll repay ur fans for u.

I loved the yellow cards but the athletic commission would never agree to it so you can forget about it
Refs just need to enforce the rules that are already in place. You can't stall, Silva was warned, but it should have happened sooner so a DQ would have been a legit concern.
