Letting Him Be A Warrior
When a MMA referee allows a fight to go on while one fighter is being beaten badly, fans say the ref is letting the fighter be a warrior. The idea is that although a fighter is being dominated they are fighting on, which makes them "a warrior", while many fans believe the ref should step in a stop the fight. The phrase originated referee Mario Yamasaki was asked about why it took so long for him to stop a one-sided beating between Valentina Shevchenko and Priscila Cachoeira, he said he was "letting her be a warrior."
Dude, the fight is a one-sided beating, the ref should stop the fight. No, he's just letting her be a warrior.
