UFC on Fuel |Dave Herman Thinks It Was An Early Stoppage But Places Blame On Himself
“I do [think it was stopped early] but it was my fault. He said to move but I moved just a hair second too late, it was definitely my fault… I felt pretty good accept for getting punched in the eye. I’m obviously not happy with my performance but overall it was a good experience and I look forward to improving.”
During the UFC on FUEL TV post-fight show, UFC heavyweight fighter Dave Herman took to the microphone and expressed his post-fight thoughts.
He looked great in the opening of the bout but during the second round Stefan Struve took over and eventually got the fight to the ground with a solid uppercut, took mount position and pounded Herman out until the referee halted the action.
It looked like it was an early stoppage to me too, but not a bad call, Herman wasn’t getting out of that position and there was still a decent amount of time on the clock.

The stoppage was justified. He was taking decent damage. I wouldn’t complain if they didn’t. I can understand why it was stopped as well.
maybe if he didnt think bjj was useless he would know how to get out of being mounted
I don’t call squirming and putting both hands on your ears and getting punched about 25 times with no change in your defense defending yourself….
He was defending himself just not the way a ground fighter does.
