Back in January of this year, Matt Mitrione suffered a third-round technical knockout loss to Travis Browne in Boston, Mass., at UFC Fight Night 81.
Though "Meathead" wouldn't offer up any excuses, he was visually impaired throughout the fight thanks to a couple of inadvertent eye pokes from "Hapa." The ringside doctors and referee, however, let the fight continue and Matt ultimately suffered a broken right orbital bone, the same eye that was the recipient of the eye pokes.
Shortly thereafter, Mitrione filed an appeal with the Massachusetts Athletic Commission (MSAC) because the official on duty, Gary Foreman, did not penalize Browne and did not saving Matt from himself.
