John McCarthy: Scott Jorgensen's corner 'absolutely' could have stopped fight after injury

For a fight on the prelims of a television card lost in between the two biggest UFC events of the year, Scott Jorgensen vs. Alejandro Perez elicited quite a bit of discussion.

Jorgensen, a hard-nosed veteran, injured his left leg at the very end of the first round. He then proceeded to limp and hop through almost the entirety of the second before his leg gave way during a kick attempt and he tapped out to end the bout.

It was painful to watch -- and obviously more painful for Jorgensen to participate in -- but should the fight have been stopped?
