What the score cards have said at that point is irrelevant... If he would of went the distance Lopez was goNna get the win period.. Did you guys notice when salido would push lopez head down the ref would be all over it but Lopez was granted the luxury to do so?.. I forget what round Lopez was pushing his head down so much that salido reached for his leg and then looked at the ref like WTF.

If you going to bring stuff like this. Did you see Salida grabbing Juanma's leg in round 7(I think that was the round). Juanma was punching and Salido grabbed his leg.

Puerto Rico is one of those places, where you have to get the KO to win if you're an outsider fighting a top fighter. Thankfully it didn't go to the scorecard.

You should see what happens in Mexico, Canada and Germany. Then you really would know what getting cheated looks like.

First four rounds of this fight were close and the champ being at home will get the edge anywhere, fith round salido clearly won and the extra ponit for the knockdown. From their on salido dominated although juanma. Did come back in the seventh. So having it a drawcto that point is in no way a robbery.

Robbery is a lot more common than it should be, not any place special, PR MEX GER USA, I've seen home town decisions everywhere. Salido is lucky, he had enough talent to wreck the crook's plans. Of course, it was a setup from the start, Puerto Rican judges, ref, in PR, with a roaring crowd of Puerto Ricans. If you look at the obstacles Salido had to overcome to put himself in position for that "early" stoppage, that alone is note worthy.

Exactly.. Lopez was pushing his head the wholenight... At that point he had pushed his head So down that he was about to fall down so he reached for his leg... I guess he got tired of it... My point is the reff was not calling it on Lopez at all.

Yeah and also the ring was huge, kinda like the ones they used to put when Calderon did his marathon thing
Salido's experience helped him cope with those situations, a less experienced fighter would have been intimidated and exposing himself to one of Juanma's desperation punches like Concepcion did, yet Salido remained calm doing his work never really rushing in for the ko

It was a setup from the begining. If Orlando gets past whoever he fights in July, then the rematch should take place in Mexico. It would only be fair.

Puto Ricans always have some crap to talk when a Mexican beats them. And we all know that Salido would have lost if it went to the scorecards because that what Puto ricans like to do. When a Mex loses to one of your kind, they just take their loss like a man.
