    Round 12

    Agbeko throws hard left hooks, backing Mares up. Agbeko jabs out long and then ducks the flurrying counter attack. Mares hops on his toes and moves to Agbeko's right, but circles directly into a right hand. Jabs to the body from Agbeko on the outside. Mares is clinging to the ropes, moving constantly. Mares throws a long right, then bodies up against Agbeko and starts to shoeshine the body. Agbeko stalks and takes big lateral steps to cut the ring off. Mares is throwing his 1-2 hard, surging forward from off the ropes. Agbeko is annoying him with the busy jab, and throwing right hands with him whenever Mares opens up. A short combo to the head by Mares as Agbeko ducks forward and covers up. Unintentional rabbit punch by Mares as Agbeko ducks an overhand right while they're tossing leather back and forth at mid-range.

    it's your fault it was obvious that they'll give the fight to Mares. He is going to be the first champion 'made' by golden boy. They will not let him lose to some unknown unmarketable African. That's ****ing boxing if you bet you should take this things into consideration

    Do you score based on the ref's rullings when it comes to knockdowns? I tend to myself.

    I gave the last round to Mares and ended up with a score of 113-113.
    Even.

    Judging by whats going on here, I'd have to say MAres is going to win by at least 5 or 6 points on the judges card.

    I've never felt worse for a fighter.

    **** like this makes it hard to enjoy an otherwise good fight. There was some really nice action in many of the rounds, but this fight will be remembered for a horrible ref.

    This is the worst ref job I've seen since Bute/Andrade I.

    I won a little cash on this because I went for a Mares UD but I'm still mad at Mora, **** poor job.
