Shane Mosley NEVER went to the nueatral corner! INCLUDES VIDEO CLIP
In case no one noticed, cus God knows HBO sure as hell didn't. Sugar Shane Mosley stood right over Ricardo Mayorga, just about 5 feet away from him when he dropped him.
He was not sent to a neutral corner like he should have been. And with the 2 seconds that were left he would not have knocked Mayorga out without a little "help" from the ignorant referee.
I'm not arguin that Mayorga would have won, because that knockdown sealed his fate, even for the most diehard Mayorga fan. Which is me.
But the man would have went the distance with Mosley. Which is what he deserved to do, and made a good fight of it.
Clearly if the tables were turned, and Mosley had been knocked out in this fashion, HBO would have cried foul.
I think its Bullshit.
TKO24 - Shane Mosley vs. Ricardo Mayorga
Re: Shane Mosley NEVER went to the nueatral corner!
Me and my mate that i watched the fight with both said the same thing at the time,
the referee made a mistake and Mosley capitalised on it, its not right that HBO pretended it didnt happen, Mayorga deserved to finish the fight
Re: Shane Mosley NEVER went to the nueatral corner!
I didn't notice that. But your right. Mosley never went to the nuetral corner.
Re: Shane Mosley NEVER went to the nueatral corner!
It happens. As I recall, Ali didn't go to a neutral corner against Liston. Yes, HBO should have pointed it out. I, for one, am glad. I really enjoyed watching Mayorga get floored with that left hook. That punch was a thing of beauty.
Re: Shane Mosley NEVER went to the nueatral corner!
i didnt notice that, i think everyone were just so excited about the k.o.
Re: Shane Mosley NEVER went to the nueatral corner!
I believe the ref didn't say anything because his primary concern was for the well being of Mayorga.
with the 2 knockdowns in that round and using the 10 point must system the judges would have scored that round 10-7 so the scores would have read 117-109, 114-112, 115-111
UD Mosley, would you be satisfied with that?
Re: Shane Mosley NEVER went to the nueatral corner!
Its the refs job to send Shane to the corner and he didnt . Plus it doesnt make a difference anyway cuz Shane would have won on the scorecards so pointless debate
Re: Shane Mosley NEVER went to the nueatral corner!
Neither did Julio Cesar Chavez against Meldrick Taylor, that reminded me exactly of that situation when i rewatched Mosley vs Mayorga.

It matters to me. And it matters to other fight fans who want to see every fighter get a fair shake.
Not just the HBO house fighter.
Mayorga deserved to go the distance and he deserved to have the referee follow the damn rules.
