MEXICO CITY – A lot was made out of his co-main event knockout win vs. Drew Dober on Saturday, and Manuel Torres himself sits on the side of the fence that says the fight should’ve been stopped sooner.
“If you look at the replay, I was watching to the referee, ‘I’m making a lot of damage to my opponent,’ but he didn’t stop the fight,” Torres told MMA Junkie and other reporters at a UFC on ESPN 64 post-fight news conference Saturday. “So I’m a professional. I kept doing it. But yeah, of course I felt my opponent was a little down even before the stoppage.”
“… Just in certain positions, that can happen. Of course in this one, Drew Dober was looking down, so for the referee, it was hard to watch him (and see) if he was out or not. I think they could work a little bit on that kind of thing, but just it’s really specific positions.”
