    FYI the saved by the bell rule was entirely off in this fight. Some fights in California have it on for the 12th round only, but this wasn't one of those fights. Since neither fighter could be saved by the bell in any round, had there been a knockdown in the final 10 seconds, Bradley would have still had to beat a full 10-count and make it back to his feet or it would have been a KO. (even if the final bell rang during the countout)

    Now just hang on a minute !! How about these refs?....

    Floyd SCREAM!!! "He bit Me "" Ref Bayless " I didn't see what happened but if he does it again I'll take a point" ROFLMAO Take a point for what Kenny you didn't see anything
    :patsch!!!!
    Hatton " Mayweather is ducking below my beltline what you gonna do"? This is ILLEGAL!!!! Joe Cortez replied " Don't hit him while he's down there Ricky or I'll take a point" :patsch!!!!!
    Sat nights fiasco was just a mistake I thought the bell sounded too How many times do they need to sound a 10 second warning

    That fight was not allowed to be finished and should be called a no contest. There should be a rematch, the commentators were talking about it...............the fight was not allowed to be finished, Bradley was saved by the referee..................Provodnikov ruined Bradley's chin, damaged him for good...............

    I sure hope he didn't spit this garbage:

    If he's trying to be a complete esshole to assume a villain role and be more marketable, he's doing very good.

    Typical boxing fans jumping on the loser just because there some controversies.

    Same as jumping on an underdog just cause it was a close fight.

    Nothing ever changes

    He needs to go play on the train tracks as far as I'm concerned :twisted:

    He didn't even knock him down.

    Bradley cannot be stopped, the guy is tough as old boots. The ref has a bit of a 'mare but there's nothing to suggest that Bradley couldn't make it to the bell unaided. Let's not forget that he outclassed Vargas for 12 rounds prior to that minor controversy.

    Bull**** what an over reaction by you. Bradley wasn't even hurt that bad, in fact Provo had Bradly hurt much worse than Vargas did. Vargas wasn't going to finish Bradley off stop with the wishful thinking and be real with yourself. Bradley won the fight.

    Bradley was hurt but not done. He blocked the next 2 shots after hitting the ropes, and then smartly clinched.

    Once again you find a way to bring up PBF in a thread that has nothing to do with him. Yet you say you're not obsessed. The man controls you, he owns you and this post is just more proof. Seek help old man.

    I don't think he would have KO'd him either. Bradley was out of it but was still there, holding and attempting to escape. Vargas wasn't full of energy either, he was clearly tired and wouldn't have done much to follow him. You can clearly see that when Bradley holds him. Vargas barely shows enough fire there due to exhaustion. Then the referee separates them and the fiasco began.

    Definitely an idiotic referee, but Bradley would've survived in my view.
