MMA judge Seth Fuller admits he’s not supposed to speak publicly about scoring fights, but in a recently published video he did so for nearly 30 minutes.
The rule isn’t exclusive to Fuller. Many state athletic commissions forbid officials from speaking publicly. That apparently includes the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, the commissioning body Fuller worked for as he judged UFC 277 bouts on July 30 in Dallas.
During and after that event, Fuller was criticized for one of his scorecards, including on the broadcast from commentators Joe Rogan, Jon Anik and Daniel Cormier, as well as online by fans and media.
