I have to agree with TTech on this one, however; the guy was clearly an idiot for trying to stop or postpone the fight because he believed there was grease on Nate's leg. Come on. Keep fighting and plead your case after the fight.

What if something happens and the judge could not have seen it. Like the opponent breaks your chin or something even more serious (like when Cro Cop broke Sapp's orbital bone.. if Sapp was in a position like Palhares he would have probabily ended up blind. Even if he defended himself a few punches/elbow gets through and especially when you try to tap thats when you open yourself up and another few punches follow) that could potentially be career ending if you receive another punch or two...

Of course you would hit him he deserved to lose for being an idiot and not concentrating on the fight no matter what was going on

Just gotta add that I just find it strange cause he seems like a nice dude.

so when a guy is pointing at a referee and yelling something and looking away and therefore clearly not in the fight anymore mentally, that is when you attact. IMO thats even worse than being a cheater.
