The ****in ref was too involved, warned Berto's consistant holding but never took a point and then took a point away from Ortiz when he hit him on the "back" of the head which was caused by Berto turning around when holding
The ref almost took the win right away from Ortiz!!!

I actually disagree, at one point he saved Ortiz.
It was the 4th (maybe 6th sorry i forget) round where Berto was rocking Ortiz after the knock down and it looked like the ref was gonna jump in and stop it (personally I thought it would be a justified stop) then all of a sudden Ortiz drops Berto.
Great fight though. I do agree the hitting behind the head point was ridiculousComment

There should have been a point taken away for excessive turning of the head.
I can't stand when fighters look for a cheap way out. Berto was pulling a Cintron tonight.
If those guys ever meet, they'll fight with their backs.Comment

The ref was terrible. The "slip" that actually should have been ruled a KD because a punch actually landed. Off balance or not, Ortiz landed a punch that caused the KD. Never warning Berto for the EXCESSIVE holding. Berto pretty much held every other time Ortiz came in. And he took a point a way from hitting behind the head when Berto is the one ducking and turning his back. I also like how he gave Berto an extra minute to rest after the point deduction too
