I think this is a great move for the sport,we need more good ex MMA fighters who know the game inside out and know exactly what they are watching to get involved in the judging.
I really hope more ex fighters/trainers/coaches etc chose to do this,they could replace some of these boxing judges that don't really know what they are watching,never mind what or how a MMA fight should be scored.
What other ex or current fighters/coaches/trainers would you like to see follow suit or just think would make good judges?
