Yes, that's probably true. It's also completely missing the point. Just because a fighter is better and wins by breaking the rules absolutely does not mean he should be able to get away with it. He was getting major hometown favouritism from the ref while breaking the rules. Whoever would have won anyway is besides the point. You can't do it and shouldn't be able to get away with it.

There was one nasty deliberate low blow by Hatton, but at least the UK ref deducted a point if I remember correctly.
Hatton was rough, but was never nearly as dirty as Ward.

He didn't. I don't even think there was much of a warning. Certainly no point off.
