Gamboa also punched after a knockdown vs Barros (props to cubano11)

God those trunks are so TIGHT.

Fair but im firm my A S S :spankme:

I was shocked Cortez didn't DQ him (on Saturday). I think the only reason he didn't was because of the Soto debacle. It was funny because as soon as the fight started and I saw Cortez was the ref, I turned to my friend who doesn't watch boxing that much and I said, "oh man, this is a horrible ref. I bet something controversial will happen." Sure enough i was crappin my pants. One of the sites i go to has lock picks section and that was one of them so i bet a nickel on it. thought it was locked then seen that punch and thought i lost it right then

Well, if his opponents weren't such *****es they wouldn't be getting knocked down in the first place. Accidents happen, and I hate that fighters get dq'd just because of the heat of the moment. That's the dumbest thing I've ever read on this board. Congratulations.

It's a stupid rule. The ref is supposed to be there after a knock down to stop it.

but the fact all those guys hit while someone was down udnerline their will to win. I know its not fair and dangerous for the fighter whos down cuz hes not awaiting a punch.

if you really want to hit somebody while hes down, please do it like Abraham or Roy Jones. fuk him up...both were desperated when they did it. Gamboa also was a bit desperated at his last two fights cuz the pressure coming from these guys was not easy to handle.

Cortez did the right thing though, he deducted points for Gamboas mistake. It definitely wasn't DQ worthy. Gamboa is lucky that his opponent was a Mexican warrior and not some clown who would fake seizures to get out of a fight. lol true that
