    It shouldn't be changed and a great fight like that shouldn't be tarnished by this uproar over the scorecard.

        Great news, this great trilogy doesn't have to be tarnished by a pointless protest.

              yeah, protesting the scorecards and the decisions that the ref made are pointless and take away from the fight.

              i thought that a point should've been taken away earlier to be honest, i mean, how many times does marquez get to hit below the belt and not have anything done about it. he was warned four times.............. and had the two fighters been in the center of the ring, marquez was going down, he had to grab the rope to stay up, and his left glove almost hit the ground, and the only reason it didn't was because marquez was holding the top rope with his right hand.

              the ref called a fair fight all the way through, there was no bias in his decisions, i think he did a good job and although it was a loss and a set back, marquez didn't really lose anything, everyone knows what a champion he is, what a warrior he is, and what a class act he is, i know it sucks to lose and lose in such a close fight, but the reality is his stock has risen and people still support him.

              the fight was great and great for boxing, both fighters should be held in the highest regard and in my eyes both are first ballot hall of famers for their trilogy and their respected careers......................

              shaw is a "Grade A Douche Bag" and he is just making these kinds of statements about protesting while the buzz is still in the air, he doesn't give two ****s, he's been paid and that is all that fat **** cares about...........

              had the calls been the other way, i would be saying the same things, the fight was called fairly.............
