Sterling calls for referee demotion after MVP MMA controversy
Aljamain Sterling blasted referee Herb Dean over a controversial finish at MVP MMA: Rousey vs. Carano, saying the officiating system protects ineffective refs and should be held accountable. He suggested Dean be demoted to lower levels rather than fired, arguing for a review and the inclusion of fresher, more knowledgeable officials amid the Nkuta–Moraes stoppage and related controversy surrounding veteran referees.
