I Swear I Didn't Tap...

I was just practicing in case I like needed to maybe a few seconds later.

Did anyone else find it comical that he contested the stoppage? Personally, I thought it made him look like an @$$ and a poor sport. I'm glad that it wasn't made a big deal when Amir was interviewed. It would have taken away from his moment. Plus, he already beat him before.

He tapped.

He knows he tapped.
He’s just doing the ‘plausible deniability’ thing.

Tapping

I think he tapped as a reaction, without thinking about it, and then didn’t want to admit he fucked up afterwards.

He admits he tapped in his post-fight interview.

Tapped

I agree he tapped. And I’m glad that he admitted afterwards he tapped. He was probably pissed that he tapped and was caught with the same submission again. I’m very glad Amir won, he deserved it.
