Ratner on Judging and Officiating in MMA

November 23, 2009 by Kelsey Philpott 1 Comment

UFC VP of Regulatory Affairs, Marc Ratner, took some time to speak with Heavy.com in regards to officiating and judging in MMA over the weekend:

Payout Perspective:

Ratner always seems to add that big picture perspective that the MMA community so desperately needs every once in a while.

MMA doesn’t have an ideal system right now, but small changes are likely going to be more effective than drastic ones. Moreover, the community has to step back from the ledge a little bit; all sports encounter these problems, and nothing is ever going to be perfect.

    RATner has always seemed shady, can’t trust him.
