Dana White reveals the UFC will give Michihiro Omigawa his win bonus after bad judges call

UFC President, Dana White has revealed that the promotion will be giving Japanese featherweight, Michihiro Omigawa his win bonus after another scandalous call by the judges at UFC 131 in Vancouver, Canada.



Speaking during the post-fight press conference Dana said:

“Something has to be done about the judging. It’s so bad. Not only does it affect people’s lives, it ruins everything for people that are watching. You watch it and you’re like ‘what? 30-27, what fight were you watching? Now we’ve got TV screens for them. What the (expletive)? You’ve got a TV screen, how did you judge that 30-27?”

“Then you’ve got the Omigawa fight, where this guy loses the fight and Joe Silva said he was pulling a (Kazushi) Sakuraba and wasn’t going to leave the Octagon. He was going to stay in there, Joe had to beg him to leave.  We’re going to pay him his win money. I don’t care what the judge said, he won the fight. I say he won, overruled.”
