Keith Kizer plans to re-watch this past Saturday’s fight between Leonard Garcia and Nam Phan at The Ultimate Fighter 12 Finale, and if necessary, have a sitdown with the judges who rendered a controversial split decision in favor of Garcia.
That’s about the extent of what he can do other than relieve the judges of their positions, a call he believes is both premature, and, for now, unwarranted.
Kizer, the Nevada commission’s executive director, said that while he was “shocked” that only one of the fight’s three judges ruled in favor of Phan, he does not agree with UFC commentator Joe Rogan’s suggestion.
