Mares low blows weren't on purpose

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

Didn't Mares corner told him to watch it on the low blows. But he still did(intentional or not). But the blame goes on the ref, many low blows and warnings, and still no point deduction.

If it was the other way around, Agbeko making the low blows, this would be a hate thread on Agbeko.

I'm not praising Mares, I will repeat myself, he should have had points deducted but there's a big difference in him throwing low blows (which he did) to saying he came out and PURPOSELY threw low blows to win this fight. Sorry I don't buy that. His corner even told him NOT to do it.

Yea because all Mexicans are cheaters....way to be a racist.

It's a shame a great performance by Mares was tainted by his low blows but they weren't on purpose. He's not a cheap fighter and wasn't meaning to throw them that way but he did.

I thought some of the low blows were caused by Agbeko pulling Mares head down and many were right on the belt line in which the ref said was a legal shot.

I thought Mares outboxed Agbeko and the only real punch that effective for Agbeko was the counter right.

The low blows tainted a great performance by Mares.

Ahahahahahaha!!! Damn bro, you are shameless.

Whether it was intentionally or not. It had an affect on Agbeko. How Agbeko came on strong at the end who knows, The low blows affected the out come whether it was intentional or not. There could have been a 2 point swing if the low blow that caused the knockdown would have been acknowledged where it possibly could of had a a majority draw.

One this is becoming clear that Mora looks out for la raza. It is what it is.

I don't disagree with that, I'm just saying the kid didn't come out and throw them on purpose, that's my only point. He should have been deducted and the ref did a terrible job, I agree fully.

Your name is La Migra, your a racist and your calling me shameless, get the *** out of my thread.

All you're saying is he's a terrible body puncher.

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

All you're saying is he's a terrible body puncher.

I'm saying the kid has a problem throwing his left hook right on the belt, there's no doubt about that. When he does that, sooner or later some will go low. He did vs Vic and now he did it in this fight.

I just don't think a kid with his talent and future comes out as a game plan and decides to throw punches low.

[brick wall]

the simple point here is...instead of getting points deduction, mares' game was aided by lowblows and shameful officiating. and the fight was still close.

You're absolutely right... of course that's not his game plan. But at the elite level, to constantly hit opponents like that is a problem and at this point, he's coasting at a level of the sport he's not at.

If they actually put him in their with Donaire it's going to be Vargas all over again.

Take away the low blows and both fights may very well end up different. Mares was gassing midway through the fight.

I am not saying Mares is a cheater or he did it on purpose but look at the low blow where the ref counted it as knockdown. Mares and Agbeko were leaning on each other, Mares got out, and landed the low blow. Now, if you look at Mares position before he threw a punch, Abner is at a punching distance where he can range and view of where to land his punch to the body.

Its a closed fight and an immediate rematch should be mandated by whatever ABC world title is on the line.
