What was said
"He starts to put his hands on Joe Rogan's biceps. If you watch when they start to put him back on the ground, Joe tries to do the overhook. He's got to put him in that position. But Joe, once that bicep thing started happening, he got mad and he said, I'm done, I'm gonna stop the fight."
John McCarthy explained that referee Mike Beltran stopped Joe Schilling's fight after a headbutt foul when Schilling refused to continue. McCarthy clarified that Schilling, at 42, chose to return to ground position after the foul, but grew frustrated when his opponent began repositioning before the referee officially restarted action. This led to Schilling's decision to quit mid-fight.
