    But your opinion on the body shots/low blows is fundamentally the same from that thread to this one. I mean it's great if you wanted to make a new thread to praise Mares' boxing skills more or something, but I don't really see much of a difference on the specific issue of low blows. Both threads suggest that there were 2-5 or 2-4 low blows, that many were right on the belt line, and that the commentators blew them out of proportion. How exactly did the commentators sway your opinion at first when on this specific issue you're saying essentially the same thing as you did before?

    Here is my problem with 3 or 4 low blows. It changes everything in any fight period. Even when women are trained to defend themselves from attackers the are told to go for the nuts. Why because it render men defenseless. So 3 or for times is not right period.

    Some new thoughts there buddy in this format on 1st post of my added thoughts IMO. I don't know what else to tell you man, the low blow situation was about the same as my previous thoughts, the commentators had me believe that there were more low blows in top of the one's that I counted in real time enjoying the fight, I re watched it to see and re affirm what I saw plus added thoughts I got from watching every body punch in slow mo and the fight again watching it up close like a kid watching cartoons.

    As I saw it it was a draw, didn't score it I was to busy enjoying it so I am going off the final scorecards it would be a draw if the stupid ref would have given Mares the point deduction.

    I still think it was a very good even match, with both having great showings, and I hope a rematch is made soon with a competent ref who will punish Mares and have him aim above the belt not sligtly and not on it, as that is gonna be the end of him one of these days, he needs discipline in his body work as all great body punchers do but mares is to green to know any better plus a lenient Ref leads to mares keep aiming for the belt when he should be going above it, but sometimes ref's at the beginning say anything on the belt is clean anything below it blah blha lah... So I don't know.
