It's been stated at least three times that the fight would not get stopped to look at the replay. If the fight is stopped immediately after the possible illegal strike, as in the case of the Al-Turk fight and Burns v. AJ fight, then it is reviewed. Otherwise, the fight goes on as normal and there is no review. I really wish people would read sometimes.

It's not necessarily bad refereeing either you have to remember the refs are trained almost just has hard as the fighters themselves. Sometimes they just miss things due to a bad angle or they make a mistake. Most refs at the big event level are the most proven refs available(even Miraglotta) so the fact they make a mistake sometimes isn't a shock. Ed Hocculi is one of the best refs in the NFL yet he made headlines due to a mistake that he recognized but couldn't correct it under the rules. It happens in MMA too may as well give them a shot to redeem themselves. Also if you correct a ref's call after the fight without the ref having any chance to see it for himself it "officially" makes a record of his mistake which can hurt the ref's chances of getting fights(aka making money) in the future. This keeps the refs from feeling that their decisions mean less in the cage/ring. The vibe is going to be messed up no matter what if a fight ends due to an illegal strike but this just makes it so at least the ref can make the proper decision on how to decide the fight.

Isn't it possible for them to change the rules so that they could just invalidate a referee's bad decision as it relates to something in-cage the he missed, like an eye gouge or unseen low blow or something? Sort of retroactively fixing the problem instead of interrupting the fight and harshing the vibe at the event?
