    Wallet, i just thought that aswell

    Mares strays low way to much but still put up a great performance, credit to him, hopefully theres a re-match so he can put the record straight, i do feel for Agbeko but he lost the fight anyway IMO.

    This ref should be banned for life

    I'm genuinely sickened. Honestly, and I hate saying it, but a farce. The **** knew he ****ed up, so he decides to push Gray away. Yeah, nice one Mora, watching the replay gave you a clearer view han standing 1 yard away?

    I had it even going into the 11th. Either that or Mares by 1 are the only fair scores. Consider that Agbeko won the last two bogus KD call aside, bogus KD call in the first and countless missed point deductions.

    Well, you see where I'm going.

    I really do believe that Mora was corrupt in this fight. He knew Mares was landing low blows, held off warning him for as long as he could, FINALLY gave him his 'final' warning late in the fight, Mares still goes low, Agbeko puts Mora into a position where he has to do something by going down, Mora claims it a 'knockdown' to avoid having to take the point from Mares.

    honestly think theres wasn't anything wrong with the first, even Tarver said that, he did slip but it was a punch that sent him down:thumbsup

    Technically it is a knockdown, but really, REALLY, it's not a knockdown at all. Even in the fiery depths of hell.

    Still a 10-8 round to Mares though.

    Ref was absolute shite. Having said that, I think a lot of the punches in the early rounds were borderline. I think a point deduction for Mares and obviously not a knockdown in the 11th (or whenever it was) would have been fair.

    It was a good fight. Should be an immediate rematch.

    Each to their own, but it's debatable. Even if you do consider that legitimate, there's still a ridiculously large points swing that should've happened, but didn't.

    And this is not sour grapes guys, if I didn't do it when Mijares lost,I sure as **** won't do it now.

    This was a disgrace, nothing less. And it shouldn't, but it's tainted how much I like Mares.
