FNF: Delvin Rodriguez vs. Ashley Theophane & Donovan George vs. Francisco Sierra RBR

Round 7

George blocks a pair of jabs and is then folded in half by a right hand looping around his glove to the ear area. He nearly goes down but retains his balance and leans onto Sierra. The mouthpiece of Sierra comes out and as soon as it's replaced he comes out with a hard 1-2 that turns into a clinch. George is warned for rabbit punching. They clinch up on George's left and Sierra's right and this time it's George working his free right hand. Sierra with a jab and uppercut combination, then just when George thinks he's done for the moment and drops his hands Sierra gets two more power punches in. Sierra finally scores a legitimate knockdown, with George tumbling to the center of the ring from an accumulation. George gets up and immediately takes several punches, mostly uppercuts, to the chest. George steps forward trying to land a 1-2 and is countered with a crushing right hand. Sierra flurries right through the bell and George is KTFO by a right hand and collapses into the referee's arms, but it is ruled to be a punch after the bell so no count is applied.

 

That's it.

Sierra wins by corner retirement after seven rounds.

 

Oh, is that what's going on? :yep

What a weird turn of events.

 

So Gary Ritter is ruling that the judges should tabulate their scorecards through the 7th, and deduct two points from Sierra for landing an illegal blow after the bell.
