There are some people who see the ceremonial cutting of the Paul Harris as a great tragedy, as Palhares left the heel hook on Pierce for a brief amount of time, but to many it was clearly another Paul Harris infraction. Someone believed in this so much that they went ahead and made this informative YouTube video with timecode and everything to show that Palhares only had the lock on for 1:08 seconds after the ref touched him.
It sure seemed longer upon first viewing, huh?
