I hate it when a bad call by the referee makes the difference in the outcome of a fight, as it was the case in this one… Cleary, Prescott got hit behind the head + his foot slipped in the 3rd.
Yes, that cost Prescott dearly. He had Lawson intimidated by the late rounds, though finally he didn’t push it. Hardly a great fight; Sanchez has his work cut out with Lawson.
A lot of action and quite even fight. The fall of Prescott in the 3th was a little bit controversial however he didn’t push big enough to have the favour of the judges that need to see much more before ruining the record of an undefeated fighter.
