Big John wants to make the fights about him. He's in business for himself and it's not safe for fighters.

Big John has done more for safety in MMA than any other ref in the game and is a big part of why modern MMA exists at all.

Cool he really did a lot of good for the sport when uh, he invented having a special hand sign you do right before the fight you aren't allowed to stop starts.

The best thing Big John ever did is let Bobby Green rip kicks to a dude's nuts until they were in his stomach, at which point Bobby Green kicked the stomach for a TKO win.

also that time he pushed for and helped write the unified rules of mma, and then advocated for commissions to regulate mma under those rules. but other than that.

I think Marc Goddard has had fewer slip ups or questionable decisions in the last two years than both Herb and Big John. All three combined still have fewer than the next guy though.

My favorite ref is the 5'2" steroid guy with a crew cut. Big John couldn't hold a candle to that guy, frankly.

No.

Dana said something like Ariel almost ruined a business relationship that was decades in the making or some such. Was he talking about Vince McMahon? I'm assuming someone high up with WWE. Assuming Dana isn't lying I understand why that pissed off Lorenzo a bit more than the usual hot scoops from Ariel
