Why do people say Martinez beat Cintron twice in one night?

getting up & up is to different things. Unless I'm wrong the count should continue until you are on ur feet then you get check to see if you can go on. Cintron wasn't up yet so the ref said 10. End of fight then Martinez put it on him more.

Not saying he couldnt have continued, he wasnt that hurt, but the ref did say ten, waved the fight off, but because of the debate allowed it to continue. Poor job by him, he should have let his word been the final say and taken more authority. Some other refs wouldnt have been swayed by a debate. yea, he was fairly incompetent. Its probably due to the fact taht Martinez was robbed that night of a win...If he had gotten the decision, its unlikely that nearly as many people would be up in arms about Martinez 'deserving' the knockout.(which I dont think he got, although it was pretty snappy punch)

That is what I said on fight night and argued with a ton of people about it, he was pretty lucky the fight didn't get stopped most refs would have.

Also you can clearly hear the ref say 10, you dont say that unless its a knockout. looks like Cintron's knees were off the ground as the ref was saying '10'. the ref was doing a bad job, but I think it was fair to let the fight continue.

That's right. He actually lost 3 times in one night:UD,KO and DQ.

he looked like he was getting up at 9 to me, but I could be wrong. I didnt think the knockdown was so serious that he wouldnt have recovered inbetween rounds anyway. its not like Martinez is someone thats gonna jump on you. boy, people get touchy about fighters that have suddenly stepped into the limelight.

Are you retarded? Cintron sat until over 10 seconds, and he was complaining it was a headbutt. Even though it wasent a head butt, you sit down after count of 9, its over, period. It was his bitching that got the ref to continue the bout even though it was over. Martinez could have taken that to court and got it changed to a NC, i dont know why he didnt.

But the ref waved the fight off didnt he? not really, looked more like he was signaling the end of the round or something, although he did look a bit confused regardless, Cintron got up by 9, so Im glad it wasnt stopped.
