i just watched it 4 the first time. what would of u done in the 7th round when barrera clearly knock him down an then hit him while he was clearly down? good fight but bring on number 2
if i was the ref? i'd score it a knockdown but will not give jmm a count because he was punched after he was down. i'll deduct a point from mab and give jmm 5 mins to recover. this all happend so fast and the ref got the wrong angle IMO becasue than KD was clear as day
Howdy "The Underdog" I haven't got a copy of that fight but I remember that JMM had Barrera in a lot of trouble when that perfect punch dropped JMM to his knee--barrera then nailed him with a premeditated punch which the ref. saw coming but wasnt in a position to stop----I go with your calling 5 minutes to fully recover but still give the round to Jmm 10--8--:deal :deal
Hey Pac also did hit JMM in that third knockdown but Cortez still counted, sometimes it depends how the ref see it.
I would score it 9-8 for MAB. 10-8 for MAB for scoring the KD. But he gets deducted by 1 for pre-meditated hitting while the other fighter is down. But since Nady didn't call a KD, the judges might have scored it 10-9 or 10-8 for JMM, and that would be a 2 to 3 point swing on JMM's favor.
I would have deducted a point from MAB, it was clearly intentional as he leaned over to say stuff to JMM in his ear and then threw the punch. Give JMM 5 minutes to recover then deduct a point for the knockdown. So it would most likely go 9-8 MAB, but it also depends on the judges because JMM clearly was beating the crap out of MAB.
i scored it a 9-9. mab landed only two clean punches in that round. the one that kd'd jmm and the one he threw after jmm was down. i gave jmm an extra point for winnin the round up until the time of the kd so 10-9 and deductyed a point from mab for a 9-9 score. i disagree with pharaoh. mab was also deducted a point for punching pac on the break and the jmm punch was waaaay worse IMO.
I would have called it a knockdown and then taken a point from Barrera, so it would be a 9-9 or a 10-9 round.
