Holy shit...just watched the clip and I was at nine (though the ref celarly wasn't) by the time the ref turned away from Bute and started berating Andrade for no readily apparent reason. That is one of the most disgraceful pieces of officiating I've ever seen. MTF
They weevil thier way into the commonwealth games so one has to assume the flag is just another subtle version of that fucking union jack.
The poll predictions were spot on. Either it was going to be Bute by decision or Andrade by KO. It didn't appear any other outcome was possible and that turned out to be true.
I haven't seen fight yet but it sounds like the ref did a commendable job. Hopefully he gets to officate more world title fights. artie:
It has been a good year for new ref talents. This guy had all the tools but still he might be only the second best of the year, the guy of Williams-Airich was probably even more of a retard. Of course it is easier t o shinein a scrub fight than at world level
I forgot about him for a moment; surely that guy has got to be elevated to world level soon? He made last night's Coco look positvely competent... MTF
Bute got up but he was out on his feet he didn't even know where he was. If there were 30 seconds left on the clock bute would have been brain damaged and in a coma.
everyone is missing the point Bute got knocked down..the fight officially ended...and then because you cant be saved by the bell bute got his ass up in about 8 to 9 seconds...he beat the count wether we like it or not it doesnt matter if is was a 20 second count because he got up in normal time got it everyone?
horseshit..if you make it to your feet then you have made it...nobody is going to stop the fight with no time left on the clock..be reasonable...it makes sense if there is time left but there wasnt
