If it was a knockdown and Barerra hit JMM when he was down, then a point could've been deducted.. but if he wasn't "down" then why did Barerra get penalized by hitting him?

Anyway.. JMM lucked out by not going down to his knee.. usually I'd encourage the fighter to just give in and take the knee at that point to avoid any more punishment on the way down and try to regroup.. That was pretty terrible though.
Nady said he thought Barrera hit Marquez on the shoulder or something ?? but anyway he hit Marquez while he was on the floor and looking at it from Nady's point of view he thought it wasn't a knock down and clearly see Barrera deliberately Marquez while he was on the floor plus hitting your opponent while he is on the canvas is a terrible foul, Barrera has always been a bit of a hot head.
