You can watch the full fight here
http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/index, which is where their scoring and opinions are coming from.
As stated by TyBuff these are full fights/unedited. The files are on-line-stream or you can download them and watch them on your pc. I posted the fights somewhere. ;) With instructions.
I would not be arguing if I had not seen the entire fight.
Sort of wierd watching a fight from the Contender with out the sound effects and all the family shots in between. They should release all the fights but anyway, this was a tough fight to score for me specially rounds two and five but I was influenced by Joe Testosterone
when he said it was a push, I know it was a knock down but since I was rooting for Bravo, I gave Bravo the benefit of the doubt and went with the commentators observation. How many of us have been influenced by commentators? I have. Even Joe and Teddy are guilty of baised comments, especially when it comes down to West Coast/East Coast rivalries.
Peace.
Thats why I watch fights like this without sound....This way, NO INFLUENCE!!! This is why I hate half witted commentators....LOL
He connected with a left hook to Bravo, but pushed him down with the right elbow....If Brewer would have stepped back or to the side and threw something else after the left hook, then maybe it would have counted as a knock down....
