    Honestly, Roger Mayweather really ****ed up here. A trainer may NEVER enter the ring before the bell or it is an automatic DQ. I don't know why he would do that. Very ****ing ******. Or rigged fight. Look at it anyway you want.

    For a good instance of similar instances taking place and the ensuing DQ, see Barrera-Jones I or Tyson-McNeely.

      Fact: Zab is glad he didnt get 1 or 2 points deducted for the low blow and behind the head punch. (He didnt even get warned)

      Fact: Richard Steele broke the two up and sent each men into the neutral corner for Floyd to get his 5 minutes of rest.

      Fact: Steele did not halt the clock due to Mayweather stepping in (which could be a strong case in some instances)

      Fact: Roger jumped in and went over to Judah to be witheld by Steele

      Fact: Mayweather is seen standing in the corner for the most part.

      Fact: Yoel came in and instigated the riot.

      Fact: Rid**** Bowe was not DQ'D for his entourage snapping walkie talkies to Golotas head.

      Fact: No purses were witheld

      Fact: John Ruiz/Norman Stone promoted by Don King remember the Golota fight with the riot almost caused by Norman Stone and running over to Golotas corner. Stone was thrown out and fined.

      Fact: No protest from King their.

      Fact: King is just upset that he didnt win the battle against Arum and is looking to salvage one of his only top 10 names left on his roster.
      That one came immediately to my mind as well. And you're absolutely right about the rest of them.

      I thought Steele was going to give Floyd the option of ending the fight on a DQ, like in Hopkins-Echols II after Antwun flipped over Bernard. King should feel lucky the fight was allowed to continue at all.

        But since each man was sent to his neutral corner that may be overlooked.

        But to be fair to both sides it went both ways to an extent. But Mayweather (Roger) was maintained by Steele and Yoel ran in behind the ref and started the physical altercation.

        Roger should have been thrown out at best. Yoel should have been the pro and let the ref finish the business he was taking care of.

          You're very wrong. The Golota fight riot took place AFTER the bell

            PBF gained ZERO competitive advantage by Roger coming in. He still would have had five minutes to recover from the low blow/rabbit punch. Besides, Richard Steele would have been well within his rights to DQ Judah for those fouls. If this result is changed, it still doe snot make a case for a rematch because everyone will know who won the fight.

              I know that but a riot is a riot during any part of the scheduled 12 rounds which is clearly considered part of the fight. Whether it is during the actual 3 minute rounds or the 1 minute rest period it is still "in the fight" so to speak.

                    Mayweather would stop him within 9. Cory Spinks would be no test whatsoever. Spinks is a decent fighter but Floyd would dispose of him and give him a thorough pedigree beating....

                      I know you asked him but if I may put my 2 cents in this, I personally feel PBF would tear him apart b/c spinks doesn't have the power to scare pbf like judah did, which is y he was so hesitant. He won't at all be hesitant to throw his combos against Spinks.
