    You cant use THAT as a representative example of the problem LJ - in fairness Mexico is a total basket case country in general.(Look at todays news about 'Shorty' Guzmans escape from jail for example).

    Whereas the Flanagan 'win' DOES reflect a real problem IMO. :thumbsup

    Barry Jones makes an interesting statement on this weeks ESPN podcast. Apparently he spoke with the referee in the hotel after the Flanaghan fight. The referee did not see the clash of arms that caused the injuries, all he saw was legitimate punches being thrown hence the decision to award the win to Flanaghan. If he had seen the clash of arms that caused the injury he would've ruled it NC

    It's ok. Has some good interviews and I think Barry Jones talks a lot of sense - just need to see past the self congratulating and posturing
