Sokoudjou refused to stop beating Jan Nortje even as the referee was laying in
between the two fighters at Dream 9 “Super Hulk Tournament”
“There is no bad blood … Actually, [Nortje] is a really cool guy. We met at
the bus on the way to the hotel. We were always nice to each other.
“It’s just one of those moments where – you know I lost two fights in a row,
and I was in a state where I told myself, ‘There’s no way I can lose this
fight.’”
“I got [Nortje] on the ground, just like I thought I would do, and I was
pounding and I didn’t want to stop … But I should have stopped.”
“There’s no bad blood. He’s been nice. We’ve run into each other, and every
time he’s always been a gentlemen. I feel like a douchebag doing it. I’m really
sorry for it.” [MMAjunkie]
