    I'm one to say that if your the challenger..you gotta TAKE the belt from the CHAMP!!..

    Mares won IMO..but it wasn't clear..and could have gone either way..I wish Mares would have stopped moving away so much..because he looked scared..he did good in exchanges and should've did it more..

    Mares won the fight..but he failed to take charge and dominate..so I couldn't argue the draw...

        Mares was up after 9 rounds and swept the last 3.....

        There is no way this fight was a draw.....
        what a poor decision made by the judges...

          In the 1st half there were too many rounds that could have gone either way. I do agree that Mares won the last 3 rounds. I can see this fight going two ways, either a draw or Mares winning. I also had Mares winning, it was 7 rounds to 5. But there was a very close round that I gave to Mares which could have gone either way (Can't remember), hence me not having a problem with a draw.

            I'm far from a fan of Perez, but I thought he pulled it out 7-5. It was all Mares late, but I thought Perez won most of the early to middle rounds with aggression and the cleaner, harder blows. I don't understand the outrage because of the draw. I didn't see a clear victory for either, so they need to do it again.

                I agree, there were so many instances where Mares would do too much moving and no punching.

                  For me the fight was from true warriors!

                  Abner started blazin' with good handspeed, but Perez got the better of the fight methodically in the middle rounds and at some point they went into the inside route, then as if Perez wasn't letting up, wherein you can see Abner backpedalling. But clearly Abner won the last 3 rounds. But whoa what exhange between the fighters!

                  It was as close as it can get, and a draw would just probably set up another rematch.

                  Mares made me a fan, and Perez ain't that bad too!

                  That fight I found more interesting than Izzy/Rafa's.

                    it was close. could of gone either way,

                    after 9 rounds i had perez up 87-84.
                    mares swept champ rounds.
                    draw 114-114.

                    will have to wait till i get fight dvd from brother but on a half decent stream i seen mares miss alot of those shots that i take it some seen him landing in mid rounds.
                    man that was a good fight.
                    i can see some not keeping score then seeing mares take champ rounds
                    and thinking he won fight.

                      I got mares the 1st rd. Then Perez schooled him for the next rds, until late where Mares got the 9-11 and 12 was an even rd maybe for Mares. I got Mares losing. Mares was hitting air and Gloves for most of the fight. I'm Pinoy so i have no Bias!!
