Bobby Green has had quite a week and now, he’s about to have a great fight. But does he come out on top? Green went up against Jalin Turner after Dan Hooker pulled out of the fight at UFC Fight Night Austin. Was he as dominating as he claims to be?

Unfortunately for Green, things went sideways quickly. In the very first round of the fight, Turner managed to stick him with multiple punches that would wobble and drop the fighter. Now fans can’t stop talking about the finish. Here’s all you need to know.

Fans and fighters flame stoppage as Bobby Green floored

Before the clock hit its 3-minute mark in the very first round, Bobby Green was out of it. Turner managed to punch him down to the point where Green seemed almost passed out. But should that have been the case? Fans and fighters are speaking out about a late stoppage because the ref let Turner hit Green to the extent that it was excessive.

UFC fighter Derek Brunson too chipped in.

Green looked like he had been knocked out cold after a brutal ground and pound that could have been stopped earlier.

Even Dustin Poirier couldn’t help but speak up about it.

Famous MMA journalist Ariel Helwani of the MMA Hour Show was on it too.

Meanwhile, these fans called for the commission to remove the ref for good.

What did you think about the stoppage of the fight? While it was a rather spectacular knockout, it never needs to go so far. Even Turner himself was surprised regarding the whole thing. But at the end of the day, it’s part of his work. Here’s his take on the situation.

Jalin Turner’s comment

Turner too seemed to believe that the stoppage was too late. It shouldn’t have been this way to begin with. In a later conversation, the winner of the match opened up about the whole situation and he wasn’t in favor of the ref either.

“I ain’t gonna talk down on the ref, but yes, I am.” Said Turner later on. The ref himself Kerry Hatley is a professional who must’ve had some understanding of the situation. Yet it all fell short. Late stoppages aren’t as rare as they should be. But do you think it went a little too far this time around? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
