UFC ref Keith Petersen has found himself at the center of controversy.

During Saturday’s fight between Dan Argueta and Ronnie Lawrence, Petersen stopped the fight during a choke attempt by Argueta despite the fact that Lawrence didn’t tap.

Here’s a better look at Lawrence not tapping out.

The commission ruled the fight a no contest due to the mistake by Petersen.

Argueta was clearly not happy with the no-contenst decision.
