David, I think what DaddyYankee is referring to is that while we know what you just explained to us here, some people reading the article might not. Remember, not everyone visits the forums.

Lol JSFd25 what a punk,



Hey David. What DaddyYankee and JSFD25 are trying to say is that the only thing wrong with your article is that you put a cuban in a bad light.

I personally thought it was a great read. Some posters here are used to reading stories and Tall Tales in pictures. Reading is not really their thing.

Hey JSDF25, sounds like you've "sparred" too many rounds bro.

He got me obviously not you it ends on the first thing i been saying all along some time **** isn't black or white some times they are grey. It was an unintentional foul just like in the fight you people treat boxing like it's tennis or something with rules and intangibles a lot of boxing is left to be judged by a human being and there is no automatic DQ's in boxing.

The rule is very black and white tho, you cant hit after the belt. This is not a judgement call where the ref can decide if its ok to hit after the bell or not. The ref has too much control. They should have replayed it at the ring and declared it a NC

Fair enough people just have a hard time reconciling it because Barthelemy seemed to be on his way to an easy onesided destruction to win the title and was clearly the better fighter but............rules are rules should be a NC, rematch mando asap.

I completely agree, they should do the right thing. What Beth did was a disgrace to true boxing fans around the world.

What rule are you talking about!?!?!? There is not a single non flexible 100% automatic rule in boxing there is no automatic DQ **** that's your imagination. I've told you boxing aint some sport where things are always clear cut and neat sometimes shady **** happens just like life and that article that is why it is up to the ref like I've said a gazillion times. If it was black and white we wouldn't need no ref to rule on intentional or unintentional fouls and as previously stated by myself the most they could ever do is rule it a no contest no fking way someone would get like you all where saying DQ for an unintentional foul no way .
