I think, by that point, LaPorte was just looking to go the distance, which he always did and was looking for one single shot ~(which he could also do).

one of the most frustrating fighters ever

had the chin and skill to survive 12 with a near-peak Chavez and the punch to get his respect, even rock him, the punch to fucken splatter Rocky Lockridge too, and over the course of his career he did- uh, well he did that anyway.

Watched it last night on your recommendation. Here's how I had it:

Mickey Ward v Reggie Green

Round 1: 10-9 Ward
Round 2: 10-9 Green
Round 3: 10-9 Green
Round 4: 10-9 Green
Round 5: 10-10 Even
Round 6: 10-10 Even
Round 7: 10-9 Green
Round 8: 10-9 Green
Round 9: 10-9 Green
Round 10: Ward stops Green

Total through 9 completed rounds: 89-84 Green (actual scores unknown)

Man, this was some fight, which is typical of a Ward fight. I heard Green was ahead on 2 out of 3 cards and although many of these rounds were close, I can't see anyone having Ward ahead. The announcers gave the ref some stick for the stoppage, but Green was getting pummeled. Perhaps he could have cut him some slack by giving him an 8 count as the ropes held him up on that final blow of Ward's. But its a fine line.
