Nassourdine Imavov: Referee made the right decision in TKO win over Jared Cannonier at UFC on ESPN 57

A lot has been said about how the main event of Saturday’s UFC card ended.

In a middleweight bout, Nassourdine Imavov defeated Jared Cannonier at the top bill of UFC on ESPN 57, which took place at KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Ky.

Imavov (14-4 MMA, 6-2 UFC) wobbled Cannonier (17-7 MMA, 10-7 UFC) in the fourth round of their contest and then proceeded to go for the finish. In the process, referee Jason Herzog stopped the fight.
