 Big John McCarthy recently sat down with our radio partners over at Tagg Radio's "The Lights Out Show". Chris and The JDH tell us that this was one of their best interviews in recent memory so don't miss it! Below are some of the highlights"
BIG JOHN ON WHY HE QUIT REFFING FOR THE UFC:
"I quit reffing because I was disappointed in some of the things that were happening in the sport."
BIG JOHN ON MAKING A COMEBACK:
"I've been offered a lot of chances to comeback. I haven't taken them yet, but yeah, eventually I'll come back to refereeing because I love it."
ON CB DOLLAWAY - DID HE TAP OUT?:
"CB tapped. Herb (Dean) did the right thing in stopping that fight...Amir has caught twice, so he's got something to go work on."
'Big' John also talks about times when he blew a crucial call during a huge fight, and expresses his frustration in the fact that there are no ramifications for BAD refereeing.
