Andrade didnt move from his corner thats bullshit, that ref was paid i dont wanna hear it. Bute would OUT on his feet and even after the ref counted and the fight was over he couldnt even walk to his corner without help!! his legs were like spagetti, thats total BS, I hope they have a rematch and Andrade protests that fight.
He beat the count anyway. The ref was doing what he saw fit although influnced by the crowd.
whether he beat the count or not, that's not the point. bute was out on his feet!!! had this fight been in any other country with a neutral ref bute would have lost by tko
Lol I didnt see the fight, Im sure its exaggerated and the Mexicans are probably fuming because he lost... lol..
It was pretty bad officiating. Bute was holding more than John Ruiz, yet Andrade is the one who gets a warning from the ref for holding. And 2 other times in the fight, when it seemed Bute might be stunned, the ref stops the action for no reason. And a clear push gets scored as a knockdown against Andrade. Then the nonsense at the end.
All in all, really bad referee. And maybe no coincidence that he is from Montreal.

But hearing all this reminds me when Lamon Brewster knocked down Krasniqi for 13 seconds. The ref counted to 9, Kras was still down. The ref stopped counting and allowed Kras to get up and continue the fight. Weird shit.
i'd say it was probably worse than the Krasniqi - Brewster incident.
It took the ref 24 seconds to finish the count.

Dude it's definetly not exaggerated. You have to see the ending for yourself. I'm white and I'm telling you it was BS. I shouldnt have said FIX as in he got paid but he definetly did it purposely to protect Butes win. Andrade should be the winner by KO. About 24 seconds went by and even after he did his standing 8 count the ref didnt even ask Bute to walk to him like he's supposed to do, if he did he would of stopped the fight, Bute couldnt even walk back to his corner without help his legs were like spagetti.

No, there's no exaggeration, I'm not Mexican, am completely non-bias, and it was as blatant a robbery as I have EVER seen.
I have to admit that Bute's win is weird and maybe this decision has to do with Montreal.Although Andrade wasn't in a neutral corner when the referee started to count Bute.
the ref called time on two occasions prior to the 12th and both times was when Bute was hurt...fkn joke.
the 12th was an absolute farce.
Bute should have been docked for holding on many occasions
I don't think he was paid and it wasn't a Fix but yeah it will be seen as hometown biased due to the ref turning away halfway through a count. I can see Bute avoiding a rematch and taking a couple of easy fights after this one.
Even so Bute was up in about seven or eight seconds.
That doesn't mean jack shit because he was not in any shape to continue regardless if the fight was over.
