Kris Moutinho feels his UFC debut against Sean O’Malley was stopped prematurely, with ‘The Green Zombie’ disputing Herb Dean’s stoppage in the third round.
Moutinho took a thorough beating throughout the contest but, with just 27 seconds left on the clock, the UFC newcomer felt he could have closed out the round swinging, with his reputation still intact.
“I definitely think it was stopped too soon, but I’m not going to sit here and bash Herb Dean because he seems like a great guy and a great referee,” Moutinho told MMA Junkie Radio following the fight.
