Yeah, but like they said.. He probably cheated himself out of a legitimate TKO/KO victory. So that kind of sucks. But yeah, he was clearly on his way to a victory.

yea that would definitely suck if they reverse the decision to a No Contest. I guess we'll see what happens.

it would suck if they let people get away with low blow knockouts whether or not they were winning the fight.

It sucks the fight ended that way it looked like Jones was over whelming Garcia.

And i dont mean to speculate (even though I'am) it seemed like Garcia went down and didnt get up from the low blow as a chance to get out of the fight. He didnt even try to stand up.
