I've only just watched the fight and yes it's actually worse than I anticipated. Mares is downright dirty. Mora is an absolute vile ref but there was absolute no sportsmanship showed by Mares at the least the offender will usually initiate a tap of the gloves but nothing from Mares...they were absolute intentional.
Jim Grey does not back down from anyone he'll stand his ground look you straight in the eye and question you right or wrong without compunction and this one he was in the right and clearly won by KO
He crushed Mora and it was rightfully earned. Heck he could have gone harder and asked if next time he would use lube before he screws a fighter. Gray is my hero, and I wish all announcers had the guts to call it like it is like he did tonight.
love Jim Grey, gets a bad rap by some. I was waiting, while watching fight, for Bernstien or one of the other dopes in teh booth to call out the ref straight up, and finally they did like around round 8. Why was Bernstien apologizing for his criticism...he's criticizing this ref, not ALL refs. One thing i hate it's chicken **** announcers who giggle their way through a broadcast.
I have been critical of Jim Grey but I have to say he was excellent in grilling Mora.
Mora had the audacity and guile to try and attempt to defend his descision. As if replay's haven't been invented yet.
hahaha yep.
After the first replay, Mora tried to act like he didn't know what was going on.
Jim Grey said, "No worries, we can play it a 2nd time". hahaha
Mora wouldn't even look at the video again or let Grey finish his sentence. He knows he was dead wrong and gave that kid Agebeko his first loss.
I just hope Agebeko recovers and doesn't turn into a Meldreck Taylor after this.
He was left stuttering:lol1:.
I was HOPING that he called him out right there on the spot. Thank god he did. I would have gone ballistic if he didn't.
I'm suprised Mora made it out of that place alive
