    Very but it comes as no surprise. CoWard's fans wouldn't care two hoots if he took an axe into the ring. Most of them aren't even real boxing fans.

    You see I sort of have to agree, Flores tried it on but the rules are the rules and Rigo clearly hit him after the bell.

    What made it worse is the officials, they made it rather clear ringside they were looking to clear Rigo of any wrong doing.

    It went from NC to DQ to a KO win for Rigo, and they were clearly wrong and I mean clearly wrong by saying he was hit on the bell.

    He never landed anything and knew he was out of his depth. He wanted a way out and gladly went for an Oscar nomination for best drama sequence of 2017.

    Woow, that chucky idiot or whatever walking around complaining about the decision. In the future don't be such a *****ng disgrace, making a disgraceful bitchmove trying to get a DQ win. He wasn't out, a bit hurt at most. Ohhh. It makes me angry, he shouldn't be paid for that ****, should be fined and banned for a period of time.

    It's so freaking clear that he was somewhere near okay, when the ref steps between, he thought the punch might've been late, so he - oh, he didn't even fell - he just laid down on the floor acting like a *****. What a joke.

    Guys, they were both throwing after the bell, why should Rigo be the one getting DQ'd purely on the basis that he was succesful in that illegal exchange? Not only that the guy CLEARLY dove and milked it.

    I think there just needs to be precedent followed for all these dq's for hits after the bell. I don't think Rigo should have been DQ'd for it, but if Dirrell can squeeze out a dq win for the same circumstances it's only fair that Rigo should have been dq'd. You can't just bounce between the two sides and favour the more popular fighter every time.

    The shot that "KO'd" him was legal. It was after the bell.

    It should have been a NC.

    Either way, Rigo promised to produce something interesting, and I certainly think he succeeded this time around. :D

    Agreed. Boxing cannot keep rewarding these fake Dirrell DQ's.

    Good, solid KO.
