    If your opponent is lunging in with wild power punches, missing with them and falling right into you then of course you are going to hold on to him.

      Shameful performance by Franco as well as the official outcome.

            What did you want Franco to do, stand and trade with a known ****er? C'mon.

            Luis made Fortuna hit nothing but air over and over. The few good shots Javier landed didn't faze Franco. In return, Luis peppered the kid when he saw an opening. Many people are disappointed because they tuned in to watch Fortuna score another early KO. Oh, well....

              You mean a test crash dummy?

                  Lunging in with wild missed punches and falling into your opponent is hardly deserving of any credit either! The point is that this was a terrible fight because of both fighters, neither fighter deserves any credit for this showing. Every round was close because there was so little quality clean punching in each round to separate the fighters clearly. Therefore almost any score would be plausible to me.

                    Shameful outcome? You had Fortuna winning? A draw was just. Javier certainly didn't deserve to win that fight. All those fans scoring the fight at home must all be Cuban, right?
