:deal

 

I think Mayorga was dead tired and those punches were just enough to put him out of the fight. I've actually seen fighters have a hard time getting up from the canvas late in fights even if they've only been pushed down or if they tripped. I don't think the fight was fixed, I just don't think Mayorga was really ready for 12 hard rounds and Mosley was. Remember Mayorga came in at around 170lbs from a 154 lbs weigh the previous day, I don't think that's a really good sign of how well prepared Mayorga was for the fight.

 

:good

 

Nah, didn't see anything there that would make me suspicious, i haven't seen the whole fight but since the KO came in the 12th round exhaustion for mayorga was probably a factor in him going down

 

You could see it that way, and you could also think the ref made a mistake by not sending Shane to the neutral corner. Shane actually moved himself ehind the ref to the other side of the neutral corner, he just didn't go all the way back, it's not first time that happens and it won't be the last, although it was the ref's responsability to make sure Shane was in a neutral corner.

 

Mayorga was out on his feet and the only thing getting him through was instinct.

That placement of Mosley by the ref was suspect, but dude his legs buckled BEFORE the shot hit him. He ducked right into a hook at total exhaustion or... :think

 

Yeah man you got me a bit suspicious. You can look at that a couple of ways though depending on if you are wearing your tin foil hat or not...

-- Mayorga miscalculated the left as high and went low

or

-- Mayorga was trying to hurry up and give him the win

:think

 

Dont think the fight was fixed.
On another note, kudos to ol Larry for outing himself at the end there.

 

I think Mayorga was just exhausted, punches hurt a lot more when you're too tired to resist them. Good call on Mosley's placing though, you would think he would be sent to neutral corner but it seemed like he was just stood in front of Mayorga.
