‘This is a very serious situation’ — Judge who scored Pimblett fight under review by commission

A controversial judge who scored the UFC 282 co-main event in favor of Paddy Pimblett is under review by the Mohegan Tribe Athletic Department, per MMA Fighting.

The judge in question is Doug Crosby. He came under fire for his 50-45 scorecard in last weekend’s Bellator 289 main event featuring Danny Sabatello vs. Raufeon Stots, scoring the bout in favor of Sabatello, who lost the fight.

Crosby was the only judge on the panel to score the bout for Sabatello, with fellow judges Eric Colon and Bryan Miner scoring the fight 48-47 in favor of Stots, who won via split decision.
