    2/3 judges scored that a 10/6 to Manny.

    Other scored it a 10/7

    10/6 is a very rare score. Fights usually stopped due to the heavy dominance!

    Anyway, my “point” stands...kind of an ambulance job round....like a KO/TKO stoppage a lot of times!

    Lot of times three KDs in a round is automatic TKO/stoppage..


    And that judge scored the round incorrectly, getting dropped 3 times and battered for a round should indeed be a 10-6.

    As for Tennyson, the last two moves up in weight made sense, he clearly was having to cut very hard to make Featherweight and Super-Featherweight.
    However this time you can only presume they're trying to look for an excuse as to why he got blown away.

    He should stay at Lightweight, not get carried away with his power and box a bit more. That's what got him success in his first few fights at the weight.
    Then he blew O'Reilly away and got carried away with himself.

    Yes, I immediately thought of the Pacman fight when I saw 10-6...

    No three KD rule saved Juan.....

    Delighted for Quigley. Fight was on a knife edge. Think he just about deserved the win.
    Big step up coming for him.
