There has been quite a bit of talk about referee Steve Mazzagatti’s performance during the Josh Burkman and Jon Fitch main event bout at World Series of Fighting 3 on June 15 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. The fight was brief, but it was the finish that led to a firestorm of discussion that includes the likes of UFC president Dana White , who often takes Mazzagatti’s refereeing skills to task, and John McCarthy, who is one of the pioneering referees in the sport of mixed martial arts. Burkman rocked Fitch early with punches, but quickly found a guillotine choke opportunity there for the taking. He took it.
