This really sucks for Barthelemy but in reality it's his fault. If he was a bit more careful he would be making more money for his next fight but he did commit a foul and this is the price he has to pay.

This needs to happen right now the champ is seen by all as the lesser fighter of the two its confirmation time, and get some competent ref and judging too this time pleaseee.

Yeah, it was his fault, but I don't really blame Bart. It was his first championship fight; he had the champ dead to rights; he was moving in for the kill; he got just a bit too carried away. I think it's understandable. I'm hoping Rances can repeat his performance (sans the late hit) in the rematch.

Who's a good fighter???? He picks up his chin like if he was getting some mangos off a tree, Mendez sucks even more for not capitalizing on that. I wouldn't add Bart on the Cubedomination.
