Cortez answers to why he stopped fight VIDEO+Spoiler.

[Markusdarkus]

What bothers me is that at no point has anyone ask the key question. Yes he was hit after he went down. Every body saw that and most of know that that is a big no no.

The real question that no one has ask is, was that punch intentional. That is what decides if a DQ is deserved or not. Was Soto's punch an intentional foul. And the answer is clearly NO so the DQ is clearly BULLSHIT...

Cortez is being consistant thats all.

Hatton lost a point for hitting the top rope so an accidental illegal blow must be either a 2pt deduction or a dq.

Going by Cortezs logic

Cortez has been trying to climb the list of celebrity attention whores for some time now..! He's one goofy looking mother in that picture, and has absolutely ruined more then one fight in my book...

[THE THIRD MAN]

Just like many fighters even the referee's go on to long, Cortez has lost the plot! To come to a decision like he did with Soto is just total incompetence.
Any rematch will be painful and potentially dangerous for Lorenzo, yeah Joe you have protected the fighter alright!

Cortez showed he was on the take when just before his illegal stoppage he jumped in to split the two when Lorenzo was a sitting duck not down or holding.

Then 5secs later jump in.

Oscar for Lorenzo though at the knockdown he is fine just touches the top of his head then when he sees Cortez call it a foul is laying on his back for 10mins.

Between Lorenzo and Hopkins for worst in ring performances, anyway both jupped that moron Cortez.
