Very good comeback by Akhmedov. With a little more caution, he could have avoided the final knockdown. It wouldn’t have been enough to win in Texas: Barrios got a generous decision anyway. His smashed face told another story!
Mario Barrios is son of the judges! What a disgrace! Another roberry in boxing! At max Barrios deserve a draw for two knockdawns! Batyr Akhmedov is real relentless warrior.
Fully agree with your opinion but unhappy to see the name you posted here. Please be calm and don’t do it again since in this forum we take care of this not appropriated issues. I may be old fashioned but thank you for your understanding.
A lucky day for a guy that during the last 8 rounds did almost nothing but just producing a very miraculous knock down just seconds before the finishing. Anyhow, in spite of the 2 knock downs suffered by the real winner, the judges cards were all outrageous in Barrios favor. Shame to all them.for a big robbery.
