Re: WBC calls Soto/Lorenzo a draw and demand an immediate rematch.
I still don't get a draw? Is it a technical draw? Makes almost as little sense as the original ruling did. And this is the WBC, how did the NSAC ultimately rule it?
There definitely needs to be a rematch. I feel bad for both guys, Lorenzo sounds like a guy who's really struggling to make all he can for his kids, can't really blame him for not getting up and trying to wrestle away a win.
Also feel bad for Soto as he really should be moving on to a lot bigger fish then Lorenzo but now he has to put his career on pause. I would bet that the next fight ends in the first round.

It is a better result but can a sanctioning body over rule a refs decision ( as stupd as it was )Originally Posted by bcollins
Cortez got it wrong but that isnt Lorenzos fault. I dont think WBC should have the authority to be able to over turn decisions based on their own judgement cuz if they start doing it then everyone will and we shall have total chaos and anarchy which will further damage the sport .
For the record I personally think it should be a Soto K.o win cuz Cortez stepped in but then chaged his mind however the governing body cant just make up the rules as they go or whats the point in having a ref ?
Referees decision is final? not a chance in this game
Remember when The WBO gave Barrera his belt back after the 1st Morales fight cuz they felt he didnt lose. I agree Barrera didnt lose but to do that is ridiculous . Summat needs to be done.

Re: WBC calls Soto/Lorenzo a draw and demand an immediate rematch.
The problem was Cortez, he jumps in to seperate them then steps back and lets them go. Then he jumps in as Soto is already in "forward progress" (if I may use that term) throwing punches.
I thikn the call was correct according to the rules BUT the ref. was at fault here so theres a shady gray area there for me.

If it is a draw, then the champ keeps the belt. Why have a rematch?

The match was for the vacant title so I'm assuming the WBC is keeping the title vacant.

What i worry about is Lorenzo, no way he is going to beat Soto in a rematch and he could get hurt badly. I hope they have a ref who will bring about a quick stoppage when things start going badly for Lorenzo, that will be about round 3 or 4!

Sorry guys I thought Soto had the belt. Still I think a rematch when one guy is outmatched is stupid anyway you go about it.

instead of a draw it should have been a no contest and there's really no need for a rematch. soto should move on to bigger things.
