Should Yuri Foreman have been DISQUALIFIED?

[King Zeezi]

Cotto obviously earned the victory but should Yuri Foreman have been disqualified when his cornerman entered the ring?

It seemed that the ref did not want to call the disqualification as it would mean Cotto would not get the belt.

If the ref really wanted to give foreman the opporunity to continue fighting why did he stop the fight when he did, because foreman could have got up from that punch, the ref did not even give him a count.

Moments earlier he emptied a whole ring and was giving the injured man who obviously was not going to recover every chance to continue. Just seemed strange he would do that.

What are you talking about? You can win titles on DQs. This isn't WWF **** here. How new are you to boxing?

[Kimbo-Slice]

Team Cotto came in the ring too, should he have got DQ'd also?

[Bierstadt]

In the interest of the sport, I think he made the right call by letting Foreman continue.

Though Yuri's kidneys will be very sore for the next couple of days, at least he went out like a man.

if the ref would have stopped the fight due to foremans knee, they would gone to the score cards.

Like someone already said, this isn't WWE fake wrestling sunny. You get the belt via DQ in boxing.

If anything the ref seemed like he could've been on Foreman's side, since he might be a *** as well.

1. You can win a title on DQ. This is not the WWE where boxers can smash the other guy with a chair to retain their belts.

2. A stoppage from a knee injury would have resulted in a TKO for Cotto, not a TD.

First of all you do win a title on DQ....second of all they said it wasnt Yuri's trainer that threw in the towel and both corners came into the ring.....the ref continued the fight after Foreman said he wants to continue


Foreman fought his heart of but Cotto wins that fight 99/100 times......Yuri just isnt up to Cottos level and would have lost no matter what he did
