The third consecutive defeat of Israel Adesanya is opposed by protests from a small part of the fans.
'The Last Stylebender' was hard in the second round of his fight with Nassourdine Imavov.
Israel Adesanya was caught clean again when he came to the Anb Arena in Ridyah, Saudi -Arabia, Saudi -Arabia on Saturday evening.
The former double middleweight champion was eating with the face of Imavov when veteran referee Marc Goddard waved the fight and the shocking loss of upset of Adesanya confirmed but was the stoppage prematurely?

Marc Goddard explains his interruption of the thinking process
UFC legend Michael Bisping has completely written off Adsesesanya after his third right defeat.
The Hall of Famer believes that there is no chance that Adsesesanya will someday be a UFC champion again.
A few days before UFC Saudi Aarabia, Bisping and Goddard met to film a podcast.
During their conversation, the respected referee gave an eye-opening insight into his work, of which Joe Rogan believes it is the one in MMA and is only covered with the hunters who put their bodies at stake for our entertainment.
“It's pretty simple,” said Goddard when Bisping asked him what he was looking for when stopping a fight.
“When I go in the step to stop the fight, what I believe in my mind at that time is that the hunter is in an unreasonable position to further protect himself.
“I never want to stop a fight. I would like to go into every fight, let it go for three or five rounds and the jury members do their work. Guess what? That is not the world in which we live. “
Goddard went further out that he gives every hunter that he gives the same piece of pre-combat advice.
If they follow when the times become difficult, he allows them to stay in the competition for as long as possible.
Goddard added: “I will always say the same thing to a hunter. It is the last thing I say to them in the dressing room. I say to them: 'If I believe you are in trouble, compromised or injured, just do one thing for me, you keep turning around and looking for your opponent, because then I understand two things.
“Number one, you are injured, but you still know what is happening. Number two, more importantly, I know you still want to be in fighting.
“Many hunters give you a subtle hint that they want to leave there. It doesn't stop, I don't care what someone says.
“I say:” If I can't see you, I can't read you. But if I can see what you are constantly doing to make up for a bad position, I will give you every chance to stay in the fight. If your back is turned and you can't see things coming, yes, I'm about to call. '' '
Goddard insists that he always places the hunters above himself when he makes fighting-ending calls.
'Of course I am making [the decision] Cognitive from my mind, but it also comes from my heart, “he said.
“From my best power and experience I think you have been compromised. All too easily I could take a step back and just stand there until someone is a crumbled hope on the floor. Egoistic, I could do that and think: “Nobody will try me about an early interruption.”
“I can't do that, that's not in my makeup. I have to call and I do this from the best possible place. “
