    They should fight again

    Next time Vianello would beat him without any cuts

    No, I don't. Rice didn't do **** but land one punch. Guido could've continued, fight shouldn't have been stopped... officially replays weren't being used for this fight, then on the fly, they change their minds, just because well.... they wanted the American to get the win.

    They created new rules to screw Guido lol. Glad Rice will get more paydays, and this is a good rule, but their goal was totally to boost Rice. They would never do this for the other guy. Rules aren't standardized, such a corrupt sport.

    A punch caused a fighter to be unable to continue because of the damage caused by the punch. That's boxing, right?

    Yeah, rules are rules. Replays weren't being used for this fight. Then they changed the rules.

    Shaw looks old enough to have fought Ezzard Charles.

    I personally think any fight stopped on a cut needs to go to the scorecards. You shouldn't be given the same reward for a lucky cut as a knockout punch. But the rules are what they are and I felt bad for Rice when he was getting shafted by incompetence.

    Would that have happened if the roles were reversed?

    It is what it is, just a sour taste all around. Rice fought like crap but a punch is a punch, just very unlucky for Vianello who had this on output and jabs alone.

    Very bad luck for Vianello but justice served.

    What would have been corrupt is if Rice got robbed, the truth prevailed.
