    Wow, yes. Looking back, I don’t remember it being such a poor job by the ref at the end. Mormeck was so obviously done for, and got cracKed behind the head while down..... and the ref still gave him a count. Iirc the rematch was, well, really weird with some sort of time management issue. Somebody saved Mormeck by ringing the bell early, or something along those lines?

    What a great fight, was a huge bell fan back then. Always felt open scoring ruined the rematch
