    Corrales would have been brutally KOed hadn't he spitted the mouthpiece after the second KD.
    He could barely made the count.

    40 seconds later. Not 10. Rules are rules. He was given 3 times as long as he should have to recover with the standard 10 count, Weeks taking him to each ref for the point deduction and Goosen taking his sweet time (not to mention giving instructions which is clearly prohibited). How many fighters that got KO'd do you think could have continued had they been given an extra 30 seconds to recover?

    If weeks thought that Corrales could continue once he was on his feet the correct course of action would have been to allow the fight to continue and stop the action to put the mouthpiece in once the action turned in Corrales' favor
