    So, I just seen the Andrade Bute matchup

    and my only concern is this.





    Why was the ref more worried about Andrade being in the corner rather than the guy who was about to pass out? I mean, if a guy is that battered, the ref should be concentrating at the fighter who just got knocked down right? I didn't see that ref one time look into the eyes of Bute until after he was done with his little tirade. Its like he was looking at both fighters through peripheral vision waiting for an excuse to have an exchange with Andrade. I agree, Bute beat the count, but I think there are some refs who would have stopped it as well.

    Am I the only one who saw it like this? I just thought it was very weird for a fighter in that condition not be the main concern of the ref.

      There was a HUGE outrage on here when this fight happened.

      Bute was the hometown fighter - that's all I have to say.

        So you guys understand my issue with the ref right with his priorities not being in the right place.

          Andrade is a good guy, was so pissed when this happened because I predicted him to win and bet on it. What took you so long to get to seeing it?

              Yeah, that was a disgraceful bit of officiating.

                Maybe we can force the ref to kneel on a mixture of rice grains, shards of glass, vinegar and salt.

                That would be quite fair.

                  Forgot to dvr when it came on, but it showed tonight on Showtime. Didn't pay attention to threads I saw about it either, so this is the first I've really gotten around to it.

                  Bute knew he lost. I hope he has the balls to rematch.

                    Too busy in those Margarito threads to show Andrade any love huh?lol From what I've heard there is not going to be an immediae rematch. Bute has been in talks is Mads Larens, Jermain Taylor.
