Terrible decision.
Miserable decision from two “pseudo” judges in this fight. Shame to both since Morasanu was robbed. Honestly they should be evicted right away from their roles since are useless and/or corrupt. First round was balanced but in the second and third Morasanu was much more active dominating both.
What a shame for the sport.
