Drysdale = Beast
You need to change this headling to, "Heiron Snakes a Win". Douche bag was screaming at the ref that Silva was out, when he was completely fine with his arms flexed, giving a thumbs up to the referee. The ref actually touched his hand with a thumbs up shaking it, and Silva was resisting the ref.
Heiron needs to keep his ****ing mouth shut, and was jumping around hooting like he had just done the unthinkable. He knew what he did and was trying to beat around the bush and lie to Ron Kruck in the post fight interview. Kruck then after listening to him talk, asked why he screamed to the ref he was out. He was stuttering over his words and saying the best excuses he could think of possible, as fast as he could think.
Heiron, let the ref do their job, and keep your business to fighting. This is not the first time he has done this to cause a premature stoppage.
Seems to be a record padding league:
3-0 against 7-6, 22-5 against 19-9, 12-3 5-4
Do you pay you opp. for a nice run around?
