"Fast Eddie" Constantine caught up with MMA Referee Josh Rosenthal at the 2009 US Open. Rosenthal was at the first ever US Open and is an avid Jiu Jitsu artist. Josh gave his two cents on the 'criticism's of referee's, the overall state of judging and how he got his start in refereeing.
to all the people talking shit about this guy hes probably the best ref in MMA at the moment, when Josh is reffing a fight you dont have to worry about early stoppages and you know when a fighters hurt that josh is going to give the fighter all the chances to get back in the fight

@ghostphantom563 one bad call doesn't make him the worst ref ever.

@TheBulletnot The goal of being a ref is to override any stupid decisions the fighter is going to make. Besides Mizugaki was out for a while before retard broke the choke.

@ghostphantom563 Yeah you are an idiot. That was not a bad stoppage. He stopped the fight when Mizugaki was unconsious. Mizugaki could have just tapped out, but he chose not to. That is not Rosenthals fault. GREAT REF!
