Let's be real, Giovanni Segura was winning the fight and by increasingly wide margins. He was fighting the fight he wanted, right in his opponents chest and dictating the pace.
The way it ended however makes me sick. It's little secret that Segura was the favored fighter over Cesar Canchilla by the house and the commentators. Segura didn't need the extra ten seconds after the bell to beat Canchilla but he still was afforded it.
The bell rang three times, yet Segura was allowed to tee off on Canchilla with impunity. Worst of all it was on live TV and the outrage is minimal at best. Where is the condemnation of this?
I guess this is the risk when you travel to your opponent's home country. It just underlines the significance of a good promoter.
