    Yes!
    Ffs, they drank empty some hotel in Las Vegas during the Floyd vs Hatton fight night. Some fans even didn´t make it to the fight because they partied so hard after the wiegh-in.

    Hell, Katie Taylor became a superstar in female boxing. Hell, she managed to outdraw many male champions. Heck, I would say more than half of the male champions. All thanks to the Brits.

    *The Brits really went: "Blimey! We have a baddass bird kicking ass in boxing!"
    Meanwhile Americans could not give two shits about Clarissa Shields.

    Now i get that a lot of people will see it all over the place and differently and some people will obviously have their favorite even not admitting, and a lot of people love to cheer for the underdog, and that comeback was sweet and would have been a great story, but to be fair 113-113 and the 114-112 are a lot better than the 116-110. That 116-110 is pure corruption score, aka Warren employee.

    Cause the first 6 round to me were clear Vargas. There is no way in hell Nick won any rounds in this 6. Then there was at least 2-3 spin rounds that could have go either way. And the 12 round for me was Vargas, as Nick landed next to nothing, and Vargas was the more active and landed more.

    Now given i could have completely different take on the scorecard if i rewatch the fight, as watching live just to enjoy and scoring on top it, ain't optimal.
    Though i won't rewatch, as this 2 don't interest me, and i don't watch the low weight classes. Just few fighters like Loma.

    I don't care about any of this fighters, but again my point is i can see 113-113 quite easily, as well as the 114-112(to be fair even for the Ball), but the one scorecard that i can't see is the 116-110.
    This is just impossible scorecard to get.

    That's harsh, too harsh.

    Ball is no hobbit...He's 5' 2"

    He is at least a dwarf !

    Did you see the feet tied up before the second knockdown also Vargas was landing enough punches in the second half of the fight to squeak the odd round which was enough to get the draw

    Fight needs a rematch

    Also heard that little smug **** Whittaker saying earlier Ngannou deserves a lot of credit "for coming to our backyard and fighting the 2 best"

    Didn't take much note of it then because it's Whittaker, let's face it - he isn't exactly the smartest cookie in the cupboard.
