    Barrera lost it when he allows Morales to sweep rds 3-7, Morales just plain outlanded him in all of those rds tho 3 & 4 were very close ones, the workrate & energy combined with EMs ability to continually answer all Barrera`s best attacks give him the edge.

    Even if you score it for Barrera, the word robbery should be blasphemy here.

    This is YOUR personal card, why include the mistakes of officials ?

    Your score should be 115-113 MAB (unfortunately:D)

    I alway score a fight with the rulings the ref has given at the time.

    Very true & with the exception of 1 or 2 rds in this fight, most people are split, not just on who won but almost every rd, it was a see-saw, hard to score type fight.

    Even tho my card has Morales the winner, I still dont feel Barrera lost if you know what I mean, neither man gave an inch despite the ferocity & greatness of this fight.
    I love Morales & dislike MAB but I`ll always be grateful to him for being half of the best fight Ive ever seen.

    :good

    Why ?

    The ref is an official, just like the 3 judges... why do we even score a fight period ?... why not just accept the judges verdict ?

    Dont get me wrong, if a fighter keeps doing low blows etc. & the ref doesnt do **** & I feel he should have taken a point, I wont start deducting points on my own card but I think fake knock downs deserve to be called as they are... fake.

    :good

    I can see why you wouldn't count the knockdown but i was more looking to see how i would have scored it if i was the judge that night. Although i wouldn't agree it was a legit knockdown i would still score it.

    Because usually (pretty much always TBH) I want to compare my card with the judges on the night, to see if I feel the fight was judged correctly. To do that I have to accept the same decisions they did.

    If it was a mirror image of the fake KD on Morales then yes... I probably wouldnt go on & on about it since it benifits MAB :lol: but I definitely would know in myself that Morales didnt deserve a 10-8 rd. I wouldnt feel comfortable going along with an officials error even tho it benefited Morales.
