    Confusing call but I'm happy with it since Flores was faking.

Rigo needs someone to throw, otherwise it tends to turn into a staring contest. Flores didn't land a single punch, while Rigo landed two hard shots. Too bad one of them came after the bell. Lol
      He still has that fast sharpness and power in his left,damn that dude is quick

        Damn. I really didn't like Rigo and his boring ass style but I've grown to have a tremendous appreciation for the guy and want to see him excel before the sun sets on his career. The ND is just a formality, but not a positive one.

            A No Contest is probably the most fitting call. Thumbs up.

              Good news! I think that's the fairest decision.

                Good call, ND.

                Now, Rigo was about to school and brutally KO him.

                  No doubt. We all (well, most of us) know Rigo can be a bore, but against a guy who actually throws punches, he can be interesting to watch. Flores was shaping up to be a good opponent for Rigo to show his stuff. Looks like he decided to take the easy way out after realizing he wasn't in Rigo's league.

The fight has already been reviewed and it is clear the KO punch was thrown after the bell.

                    Thats the correct call. Flores is still a b*tch though.

                      This is what I was talking about, Dan. Apparently, the rules state there must be intent in order for it to be a DQ. I'm glad as well. It would've been a travesty for Rigo to incur a loss in such fashion.
