Pierce was tapping furiously, and Palhares wasn't letting go. He was actually still trying to crank in the submission. Even when the referee Jumped in, Palhares was trying to tear Pierce's leg off and cranking that submission. Has it been a one time thing, yeah, I could believe that he was in the moment and just let go a little late, but this is something that Palhares has been doing for a while now. I believe this is the second time in the UFC he does this. He has also done it in other promotions, and he has done it in straight jujitsu competitions. Once? Okay, it could have been a mistake. Twice? He should have known better, but okay, maybe it was an unintentional mistake. Several times, over several years, in several promotions, across sports? Yeah, homie has a problem that could end up ruining someone's health and end their career. Palhares deserved to have his contract terminated. He didn't actually get a lifetime ban, its just shoddy reporting. Unfortunately for him other promotions are hesitant to sign him. Even Bellator said they weren't going to sign him because of his continued disregard for the rules and penchant for hurting fighter. No, I didn't see the last TUF fight. I haven't watched this season. I've wanted to, but I always miss it. My morning trend to be pretty free, but after 3:00, I have to start pretending to be a productive member of society.</blockquote>
