“Negative stuff always sells better than positive,” Davis said after the bout. “People try to make him a villain because it sells. I’ve said this a thousand times. It gets hits on their sites.” But this time Palhares (17-6) is innocent. He might have held the heel hook after Carl (21-5) tapped, but so does every fighter with any sense. You’re supposed to let go when the ref tells you to, which is what Palhares did. He also got the one submission all his opponents know to look out for, and got it almost immediately, which is kind of incredible.
