    Mcvey...

    Conteh Saad 1 was no doubt suspicious...and saad arguably benefited from doing something illegally which should have changed the fight to a no contest or DQ..

    With that said..conteh could have put the fight away in the last two rounds, but got floored twice in round 14..which cost him. A win here over saad is huge for his legacy

    In the rematch he got smashed in 4. You could argue by this point conteh was way over the hill
