Abusing the Rules Or Tough as Nails?

Rylan's picture

I saw a discussion about this on another site and thought I would get your opinions.  One of the best BJJ matches I have ever seen is 2004 championship between Jacare and Roger Gracie.  should Roger have won because he broke Jacare's arm and without being under the limmitations of round times would have probably finished him?  Did Jacare only win because he could run away and let the time run out as he was up on points?  What say you?
