I think the two points was fair. Salido was still able to fight, so it shouldn't have been a DQ.
Yeah, that's why the doctor was called in immediately.
Anyways, whatever may have happened would've been Gamboa's fault, that was a dumb thing to do. He even had a chance to score a knockout had he not done that.
Would of looked bad if both fights ended in DQ, anyway people get away with it more than you think.Namely, Margarito-Cotto and Gomez-Sanchez are good examples
idk how to call it... This was the first time I seen someone just lose 2 points for it
I think the ref handled what was a difficult situation pretty well.
No it doesn't. Proof= Rios vs. Peterson.
Two different cases. Peterson was DQ'd because he'd already had 2 points deducted. 3rd would-be deduction is typically suppose to be a DQ.
Would've been horrible if Gamboa would've been DQ'd, but it could've happened. As it happened, Gamboa may well have cost himself a KO victory.
props to salido for fighting on and not pulling an andre dirrel
Yeah boo Dirrell take a flush hook from one of the biggest punchers in the sport while defenseless and then fake a KO!
(despite the fact he was winning on points)
No it doesn't. Proof= Rios vs. Peterson.
We're talking about when you hit someone when they're down. If the fighter can continue, ref takes points away. But in the case of Ward/Abraham and Bika/Dont Remember His Name, the affected fighters could not continue which is why they got the DQ.
Not a very impressive fight.
In fact, I think it's even worse if he was 'just toying with him the entire time' like people are trying to claim.
To me, he looked like he wanted to box for the most part
Salido made it ugly and difficult by clinching
Then Gamboa wanted to end it late and nearly got DQ'd
Strange fight.
exactly......
i like gamboa but if cortez could dq soto in the Francisco Lorenzo fight...i think he could have dq gamboa.......gamboa saw he was basically down gamboa even put his hands down and relaxed.............then hit salido.
Not a very impressive fight.

He couldn't finish him, that's what happened
