I'm curious what people would say if the match wasn't stopped, and Fedor ended up winning?

I'm not saying it was questionable, I'm just wondering if the fight had continued, if you'd end up with a flood of fans who would argue that it should have been stopped. If Fedor would have recovered before Dean stopped the fight, I don't think the fans would bitch as much, I think they'd just call it "close."

Anyway, I really don't see a problem with the stoppage, especially since the refs have to keep the best interest of the fighters in mind, and protecting the fighter's health is way more important than a win.
