I don't think it was just a disgrace in the end. It was a disgrace from the set up. We keep getting worse and worse match ups. These "headliners" wouldn't even be the fight before the main event 30 years ago. They'd be lucky to be the fight before the fight before the main event.

Seriously, two gate keeper quality fighters as a main event? A champ against a nobody as co-main? The product gets ever worse. We get maybe 5 quality fights a year anymore. Sure there are plenty of action fights and fights that end up good but those are almost by accident. If they aren't by accident they are by guys on the way up because once anyone gets any standing they make shit fights. I'm losing my cool over this garbage. Back in the day better fights than those were on free friction TV, now this garbage is what we get from premium?! I really don't know how much longer I can watch this sport eat itself.
I don't think the matchup was bad at all, it was a hard fought, dirty, and close?! fight. Co-main would have been a better way to describe it.
I wish it had gone the distance just so I could have heard the judge's score cards. I was thinking very close, but who can say with the point deductions.
I'm not going to second guess the ref this time, he had trouble with them both from beginning to end, plus he was in the ring with them.
I dislike DQs the same as everyone else.
Chaves was ahead 75-74 on two cards, Rios was up 75-74 on the other
