    Was ruled a technical decision win for Jenkins because ref said there was a clash of heads .

    Gallagher team and fans going off on one saying it was a punch that caused cuts so Gallagher should have won by TKO.

    Thoughts???

    Saw this live on the telly, one of them was a clear punch. Think it was the second one, glove scraped across causing the cut. Other might have been a head clash. It’s not easy to tell in the heat of the moment but the fighters will know and the ref has the best view.

    I thought the first one was a clear headbutt, but the second one was started / lightly grazed by a butt but opened up by a punch.

    The cut that stopped the fight was from a butt after having a look back on TV.
