    At the time, I thought the ropes held him up which could/should have warranted a count and ruling of KD. He appears to turn his back but it was likely the result of the punch, a wobbly knee and being buzzed and fatigued.

    All of that being said, it was a ****/**** event and the Ref had a very dynamic situation to handle and make a call on. I don't really criticize the ref for the call he made even if I disagree.

    I do wonder why the commission didn't allow Otabek to wear his brace.
    With 7 seconds to go in a title fight , the ref does deserve some blame imo

      Why are you always making odd accusations? Did I ever say Kholmatov should be screwed over because he's not American? The UK has the worst refs and corrupt scoring in the sport but all you do is piss and moan about Americans and Mexicans.
      You said "You're a Brit aren't you" which is clearly suggesting that due to Kholmatov not being British i shouldn't care whether he's ripped off or not. Why ask if i was a Brit then?

      An odd and deranged accusation is claiming British refs and judges are the most corrupt in the sport. That is insane. I can even put it to the test and factually prove you wrong. But guess what, you'll just run away again like you did every other time i put this to you. But still you want to go around with that delusion. The same delusion you have with Kholmatov turning his back intentionally. It's because it benefits you. That's the whole point of corruption and entitlement.

      But go on, list all the corrupt decisions by a British ref and Judges. Then i'll show you what true corruption is.

          You see, without fail. Bud.

          I'm clearly not the one who has their head in the sand. But you said this for obvious reasons. As i say, i know what kind of people the likes of you are and what narratives and lies you like to spin. As soon as you're asked to prove it, that arrogance comes straight out where you immediately deflect and run away. Every single time. Ask yourself why you have these deranged beliefs in your head all the time. I know why. But do you.

              What a fight! Raymond Ford, take a bow.

              I think a rematch would also be very good but there was unlikely a clause in the contract.
              So Kholmatov needs to work himself back up.
              But Ford was saying post-fight that he had difficulty making weight so he's considering moving up.

              Not sure if it's a good idea as Ford at 5'6" doesn't look big.

                Navarrete already has a match scheduled at 135 next and I believe Cordina also said he was planning to go up if he can't get an unification. Now that Ford luckily got the belt I won't be surprised if Ford goes up to 130 to get a quick stab at another vacant belt instead of try to continue at 126 and unify against more dangerous opponents, especially if he is having issues with weight already.

                  Yes, I've read that Ford will probably vacate and move up, so a rematch with Kholmatov is unlikely.

                    Why do people keep on repeating that he turned away? Go and watch it again. He didn't. He was actually hit with a jab when moving which spun him.

                    Then you have the ropes holding him up to which the ref should have given him a count for a KD and looked to see if he was able to continue or not. But hey, it's an American ref in the ring with an American fighter who is well behind. We know how that goes.
                    Actually, you're right, after watching the sequence again, I see that Kholmatov did not voluntarily turn his back. He was on the retreat and got clipped with a right, which along with the momentum of his retreating sideways, spun him. I think a knockdown call was warranted, rather than a stoppage. Good eye!

                      I'm just here to point out what bullshlt you write and can't back anything up. You run away instead and deflect. Don't cry because you don't like the truth. Justifying corruption, cheating and cowardice is pathetic.
