BUT WHAT ABOUT THIS ANGLE!!!??!?!??!

If Sergei was ahead by 4 point going into the 12th (my scoring)
2 knockdowns make it a 10 - 7 round
Sergei has 20 seconds to get back into the ring after being knocked out of the ring!!!!

People outside of the ring hold onto his shoulders and pull him back as he tries to re enter the ring

if he gets back into the ring he wins the fight!!!

the ref can stop a fight without a 10 count or the 20 second count on his discresion if he feels the fighter is "done" but!!!

AFTER the round is over, ie clock is at zero seconds, ref waves his arms to signal that the fight is being stopped by him.

I think that the fight can be contested and sergie declared teh actual winner based on the score cards!!!!

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT!!!?!?!??!
I think even if any of that was true or came to fruition... He wasn't really 4 rounds up, the fight was SO bad but still Briggs did win enough rounds, Sergei was up 1 or 2 rounds at the most imo... And even still, the fact that there were 2 KD's by Briggs should have gotten the UD... Even if Sergei wasn't absolutely out.. I don't really understand what you mean at all come to think of it... Lyakovich was out of the ring for a good 30 seconds after the 2nd KD, but even if he wasn't the 12th round was so much more decisive than anythign else in the entire fight I think it still would have won Briggs the decision if it went to the cards.
you may be right but dont forget its a round by round contest a point is a point. He was held on the shoulders by 2 people at ring side and kept from rolling back into the ring. Dont get me wrong.. they both stunk the joint out. Its just an interesting angle based on the rules i think. they should both have there purses withheld for being bums! Briggs looked gassed in the second and had rounds where he threw 5 punches and landed maybe none!! Again what if Sergei WAS ahead by 4 points??
