Hozumi was robbed.

[F l i c k e r]

and this is why you post. thank god!

he was landing in consecutive order do you think the ref was looking at the clock or the barrage that was unanswered?

It's because there was 1 second left.


If anyone actually read the first post. I don't want to take anything away from Montiel. How can I argue his left hook? I can't. It's the 1 second left that sparks the debate.

If Hozumi would have come out the next round and got ktfo. So be it. At least it wasn't 1 second left. At least it doesn't leave room for controversy.

Imagine that if the ref did not stop the fight and Hosumi got more punches from Montiel while he was being defenseless like that. He could probably got into coma or some **** and probably would end his career. A stop is crucial for boxer's life at times. Too late might ends one's life.

I didn't catch the fight early this morning so I go and watched it a few minutes ago. When I read the results, I thought Hozumi was just out-classed, thought he was put out on his feet and I really couldn't think anything about it. With the way the article made it sound, I really couldn't argue anything for him, I thought he just straight up loss.


Then I watch the damn video and he gets caught with a left hook and gets sent back into the ropes and with 1 second left, the ref stops it. What the fuck is that?

C'mon, we all seen worse, we all seen times when dudes should have been stopped but the ref let it go. But how does anyone merit a stoppage with 1 second left? Has anyone seen Whitaker-Hurtado? Like Honestly.

I ain't gonna lie. Hozumi was hurt and had one arm stuck in the ropes. But it was literally 1 second left and Hozumi wasn't getting all that badly rocked around. I think the first punch after Hozumi was hit was flush and the others kinda grazed off him.

It's a title fight as well, as a referee you have to think about that too. You don't let a title fight end with 1 second left, you have to kinda just let it ride. How many punches is Montiel getting off in 1 second? 2? It wasn't like Hozumi was a ragdoll on the ropes either.

Something that could have been great ended with bull****. What would have been if Gatti-Ward was called a stop with 1 second left? See what I mean?


I don't want to take anything away from Montiel's win but in all honesty you can't stop a title fight with 1 second left. Hozumi wasn't even getting Froch-Taylor'd on the ropes.

It sucks but I hope Montiel gives Hozumi his rematch because that call was bull****.

how was the ref suppose to know the time that was left in the round?

let me ask you was the ref looking at the clock or the action?

90% of my threads are in the MMA forum? I don't really post threads in the MMA forum. I post in that forum, I don't necessarily make threads in that forum.

Your the one stalking home boy. Maybe amber alert is somewhere you should be hanging out.

Yeah you are correct. You only made 26 threads in the mma-section.

As i said, you are clearly clueless about this sport. Go back to the mma-section. A sport you might be able to comprehend.

Listen to the punches, you can hear it. Then at th 5 second mark, a left hook or upper cut, it caused the damaged. Look at Hasegawa's face, he was hurt bad.
