    Seems like this one has been a step too far. Terry O'Connor is going to get cancelled.

    If I was Vasquez and his team I would wait for O'Connor outside and cave his skull in. It's no less than he deserves.

    Seen a lot of boxers etc with the "It isn't Ritsons fault, its only the judges"

    Micheal Conlan was spinning similar, but obviously it isn't Ritsons fault but these bad cards are always the home fighter. It cannot be coincidence that the fighter the promoter wants to win always wins?

    MTK shows are as bad at this as anyone.

    I would love for Scorecards to be done in running, at least it would have given Vasquez a chance to lay Ritson out.

    In my opinion it actually needs a big fighter to take a stand and come out and say I am not fightOMG withTerry O’Connor as ref or Judge.

    he will be back out next week otherwise. Ian John Lewis is just as bad in fairness

    See Alex Arthur had Ritson winning on the DAZN. Thought he was a good pundit, not now. How a boxing man can think he won I will never know.

    All the outrage now, but Ritson will go on and be another step closer to a world title shot despite being massively limited and coming off a heavy lose. Eddie will do the PR spin before the next fight "Oh actually watching it back I thought he knicked it".

    Just the B side getting screwed so who really cares.

    Would love to see a big fighter do it, but I doubt they would.

    An absolute horrific decision. Disgraceful.

    It was very bizarre in ritsons corner. They never at one point thought they were losing the fight.
