    It's not about the fact if the judges scorecards were correct or not, it is about the fact you don't have a comeback in the last round if you would have won anyway because two judges are giving you the edge after 11. I watched the fight yesterday and i had it 6-5 Jennings after 11. So no, i do not agree with those scorecards in general BUT still it was no comeback. Doesn't matter if scorecards were accurate, correct, bull**** or debatable.

    When are the late rounds in a fight?

    How does it 'work' then???
    The governing bodies seem to disagree with you for the most part.
    So, if your rating/ranking isn't based on who you beat, what is it based on then?
    Or are you trying to suggest that KOing someone in the 7th is much better than in the 12th, propelling a fighter much higher up the rankings?
    Please, enlighten me....

    If your top 4 has Ortiz in it, and Ortiz's best win is Jennings, why not have a top 5 with Rivas in it? Obviously, beating Jennings by KO puts a man solidly in the top echelons of the HW division by your own reasoning......or does one have to have a valiant KO defeat to Wilder before he gets rated top 4/5?
    I'm confused here....if Ortiz is a solid top dog, why not Rivas?
    Did he not do well enough in the Potential Eye Test Trophy Cup Tournament?

    Rivas had a late comeback after losing the first 3/4 of the fight.

    Really? Ortiz smashed a better version of Jennings coming off a good performance against Wlad, and did it in 6 rounds. Also has a much better resume than Rivas outside of the Jennings win.

    Ortiz was rated top 5 before his defeat to Wilder, so not sure what you’re talking about.

    They’re called facts. You should check them out some time.

    Jennings had clearly lost a step against Rivas, he looked tentative and unsure of himself. This version of Jennings would never have lasted 12 with Wlad.

    Here's a fact for you friend:
    If you're not fighting and beating UK heavyweights, you literally don't matter in the division right now.

    Why don't we settle who is #2 behind Wilder by having Ortiz and Rivas fight for the Intercrapinental Eye-Test Boogeyman WBS Belt?
