    I also completely and 100% disagree with anyone who says the fight should have been stopped, to stop Bute when he had beaten the count, after winning virtually all the preceeding rounds, and with around 5 seconds to go in the fight would have been an even greater farcical act of incompetence..

    I think ultimately Andrade in not going and staying the neutral corner shares as much responsibility as the ref in the long count, the fact is if he had gone straight to the neutral corner and stayed there the ref wouldn't have delayed the count.

    Like the ESPN analyst said the controversial nature of the ending will ensure Andrade's stock doesn't drop at all and he may yet get a rematch.

    I don't think people should hate on Bute either. He completey outboxed Andrade for most of the fight and no matter what anyone says he DID get up before the count of 10 no matter when you start counting.

    I just hope we can see them do it again

    Where did you see Andrade not in the neurtral corner? Even when you start the count when Bute was down, the count was still slow when the ref picked up the count from the timekeeper. . .

    Regardless of the knockdown, just before this bute was all over the place and seemed to not be able to defend himself, it should have been stopped because he was just clinching and hanging on for dear life,


    I feel disgusted because i really like Andrade and feel very bad for him. Look at the way he went and made things ok with the ref after too, what a great sportsman.
