Bute v. Andrade Poll

[awdleyfuturehalloffamer]

Andrade wins and the cheating bastard ref steals it away from him. The ref cheated for bute throughout the whole fight. He needs to be investigated.

Got to give it to Bute, in beat a 24 count hahahaha that has never been done before

I want to see a wider view of where Andrade was standing during the count. Not that I think it matters, as it was clearly a fix move. But I imagine the commision would like to see it too.

Disgusting.

I must admit I'm no expert but I know they do state the fighter HAS to go to the neutral corner and so was the ref right by the proper application of the rules?

Bute was up at 9 anyhow.

This will be controversial to say the least

Damn, we will be debating this 15 years from now

Does not matter. The final bell did not ring and Bute was not fit to continue, even if he did beat the count. The ref is not supposed to take the clock in consideration.

If Richard Steele was the ref, he would have stopped it 10 seconds before the knockdown. Andrade wins. If this referee worked Taylor/Chavez, Meldrick would have won because the fight would have never been stopped.

That's the biggest problem with boxing.

Andrade got jobbed by home cookin' for sure. Bute is freakin lucky. I hope there is a rematch so that Librado can correct this error in the records.

I still say Andrade looked a bit fatty.........but the ending was shitt with smoked out Ref shielding Bute. Andrade does not need a rematch....he will be in a huge fight next time out.....Bute.....Who
