    Well when you have a referee missing a KD, and than EVEN with instant replay they fail to get it right it does add to the drama that the decks were stacked against Murray.

      Martinez stole the last round or two and made it closer than it was. No way he won the first four rounds. I had him losing. Terrible call on the kd. Unlike the Bradley fight where he controlled the majority of the rounds, Martinez looked terrible most of them. The only thing he landed was the up jab. Most of his lefts were blocked.

        No...Quillin holds the WBO title. Pirog was stripped long ago Of course, he (Kid Chocolate) fought today. Pirog hasn't fought in over a year. He hasn't fought anyone worth mentioning since Jacobs. He's a some dude who is living off the name of a prospect. Nobody takes him serious. He got close to 15 minutes of fame, then ran off to Russia, speaking of Martinez name.

        Martinez had plenty of mouth watering matchup, why waste time with nobody. Ggg and Kid Chocolate deserve time with Sergio

          What i meant was that Pirog held the WBO title when he called out Sergio. Instead you and dibella thought Barker and Macklin were more worthy.

          Do you really think Dibella will put Sergio in the ring with GGG or KC?

            I find this funny because hbo didnt have an angle that showed the feet so how do you know if it was the wrong call.

            Fwiw it would have been a draw with the knock down called.

              Murray is standing on Martinez' foot and the punch that put him down was to the back of the head. That's not a KD.

                I don't remember the circumstances behind the barker fight. Seemed like a tune up. I didn't have a problem with the Macklin fight, he was coming off a fight with Sturm, in which he was robbed. Macklin is a good fighter.

                  The grazing punch hit him in his ear which controls equilibrium, and that was after a few other punches that had him buzzed.

                  If that is not a KD than what does that make the Hagler-Roldan KD? The only time Hagler was ever down was when he slipped, but he was hit by a grazing punch on the top of the head and yet it was still counted as a knockdown.

                    Standing his on his foot didn't help his equilibrium either, Murray did land a couple of grazing shots, but Sergio made him hit air on most of that sequence too.

                    Roldan wasn't standing on Hagler's foot, unless I'm missing it.

                      You still didn't answer his post. If Pirog made his living off of Danny Jacobs and wasn't worthy to fight Martinez. Then who has Barker, Murray and Macklin fought and why were they worthy opponents?

                      Oh right, because they were never supposed to have a chance. And all 3 fights were supposed to be easy work for Martinez.
