    It shouldn't have took him to the end of his career to fight the best available 118 pounder. For him to skip out on Moreno, Mares, Perez and Agbeko when he was younger should have been a crime. Hopefully Arum lets Inoue clean out by matching him with Tete and Nery before trying to move him up.

    The people betting on a KO are pretty pissed off.

    The ref also made 2 mistakes, not one. The first was blocking Inoue. The 2nd is allowing the fight to continue after reaching the count of 10. Donaire did not beat the count. I saw 10 fingers come up before Donaire got up.

    Should have been a KO win for Inoue.

    The ref have 10 fingers up. Donaire still on his knees. He jumped up right after that and the ref allowed it to continue for some reason.

    Donaire was counted out.
