The referee was protecting the Golden Boy fighter the entire fight. He gave Mendoza constant warnings, but not even one for Lacy, even after he deliberately tackled Mendoza to avoid being KO'd. Lacy also showed no class after the fight trying to act like he dominated. I hope HBO doesn't try to sell us a Taylor-Lacy fight. That would be a really bad mismatch.

I thought the tackle should have warranted a point deduction.
