Did anyone see the Mayol - Sosa fight?

[Violent Demise]

What a fukking joke. Sosa deserved better. He needs to push for a rematch.

Really this is the only way Mayol can win a title

Have you seen the fight? I want to know what happened, the fightnews report is very vague.

VD is absolutely right, Sosa got fucked over, but if there's not a NC or a rematch after this then it will actually overtake Froch-Dirrell as my robbery of the year.

It was clearly an intentional butt by Mayol. Here's the 2nd round, it skips past the 1st which was an evenish round that I thought Mayol just edged.

I've never talked about headbutts this much in my life.

But look at the replay starting at 2:56, Mayol is leaned down throwing a right hand to the body and right after he starts that Sosa jumps in a little bit, if he doesn't do that I don't see how there would be a butt. I've heard there were other butts in the first round so maybe he was trying to but I don't see how you can tell just from that one that it was intentional.

Thinking about it though Mayol does have a habit of leading with his head.

Obviously bad luck for Sosa though.

Set up a co-feature, Sosa-Mayol 2 and Montiel-Valdez 2.

Agreed Ouma there is no way you can automatically deem that intentional. Sosa jumped in just as he was opening up to throw his right hand, completely accidental. Otherwise, tough break but he had every opportunity to gain a clear head and it didn't look like he ever got comfortable. It's not a Kendall Holt-Ricardo Torres situation. Legit win imo but a rematch should be in order.

Actually, he had very little time, plus in the first round (couldn't find a copy with that) Mayol tried the same thing twice & was warned for it. I mean he did the same against Calderon (I mean how do you clash heads with a guy 5 inches shorter than you continually).

Sosa was given very little time, notice how when the referee times them back in he was on his paunches.

Mayol isn't like Ward, who even though I dislike I don't think was intentionally using his head, Mayol has shown enough form for it, plus he's a complete little shit, like a Filippino Froch. In fact, I can't believe I forgot about him for my 5 most hated fighters. I only hate Froch more than him.
