    Why was Floyd not DQ'd when his Seconds entered the ring during the Judah low blow exchange?

    Roger clearly entered the ring during the round, and essentially began the altercation with the notoriously hot tempered Judah.

    Was this a scenario where Floyd received a MAJOR benefit for being the A-side/house fighter?

    As a boxing fan you should be glad it didn't end that way and the fight was able to continue.

    As a boxing fan, I want the rules to be carried out no matter how ****py and dissatisfying the result may be. Once you start putting one person or entity above the sport as a whole, you undermine the entire idea of RULED prizefighting.

    Honestly, there was no reason for him not to be. By rules he should've been.
    Case in point: Kirkland vs. Molina. Shorely didn't want to but those were the rules.

    Moral victory? I don't care if Floyd wins, loses, or ****s fire.

    It was a legit question. I believe Marco Antonio Barrera was DQ'd when his trainer came in the ring before the end of the round. So there is a precedence for that type of call.

    The problem with you sycophants out there is no one can question your heroes without being a "hater", "pac****", or "troll". Save your rhetoric for someone else's post.

    BTW I fully support Floyd fighting Berto.

    I was so F'n mad when my old sparring mate Carlos Molina got DQed against Kirkland for that. The Judah thing popped into my mind immediately, especially since it was so much worse.
    Yeah yeah, I know, Fcck Carlos Molina, but it's different when the guy is your friend and you saw how hard he worked to get there with the limited tools that he has.
    Rules should be enforced equally, or else it's NOT A REAL SPORT. Of course, it's ok when someone I know or am a fan of bends the rules, but I am not a judge, commissioner or referee. They are held to a higher standard. Or at least they should be.

    Well if you're anywhere boxing related around the time Floyd fights, you will hear so much unnecessary hate and unfair criticism, that calling them haters and moving on instead of arguing is easier.. Why bring up some old stuff that no one really talks about or care about unless you bring it up..

    It was in Vegas.. Just not the MGM.. I do think he was still under Top Rank though and wasn't a star yet so the "Owning Vegas" claim is stupid...
