Its not in the top 10 list of the worst UFC reffing mistakes ever, but it was pretty bad.
Rear naked choke, sunk in kinda deep but iffy if its deep enough. Trujillo raise his hand preparing to tap, but then paused, started fighting the hands, choke sunk in deeper, his eyes closed (in concentration, but the ref apparently thought he was out), ref moves in to stop it.
If someone is getting punched to death, I won't argue a slightly-quick trigger but if its a choke with no tap, you gotta at least grab an arm and see if its limp before you call the fight. Trujillo immediately hopped up and was pissed when the ref called it.
