In round 3 of Usman vs Edwards 3 at 3:38, Edwards grabs the cage to prevent Usman from taking him down. A point is taken away from Edwards, and both fighters were moved to the middle of the octagon. Should a fighter be able to choose the punishment for his opponent? Ex. Usman would be able to choose between the point being deducted, or returning to a position where the takedown is completed. Or better yet, maybe Usman could’ve chose the point being deducted AND a return to the position up against the fence.
Any other examples? Tsarukyan was able to restart in the position after Oliveira’s illegal upkick. Would a protest to also take a point away fall on deaf ears?
