Good for them, take your time and take a good look at it.
Main event isn't coming on for another hour anyways.

I don’t like the broadcast crew trying to influence the decision though.

ya i rathther them take their time and get it right....unfortunetly im not so sure they are gonna get it right here, dont see the headbutt or thumbing, looks defo like a legit left hand

It takes one look back through the footage to see that it wasn't a headbutt. They've spent 20 minutes looking back at six minutes of fight.

Desert Storm is confident they're gonna get this wrong !
C'mon the NC...

lol maybe they are staging this to help fill space before the main event

Anyone remember seeing an eye swell up like that after one round from several stiff jabs at this weight?

why have the replay system if you cant get it right - 20 minutes is ridiculous. The point is the ref called a head butt that doesnt exist. Maloney outboxed him convincingly for two rounds, causing Franco to be is a position where he could not continue - TKO win for Maloney, no other option.

yea a headbutt needs to be ruled out decisively.

I didn't see any butt either, and to the TV crew's credit they already mentioned the thumbless gloves.

I think NC and rematch is good for me and the fighters..

if he fights differently thinking it's a foul and he can just get out of it easy without a loss then it's tough sh!t on him

I have sympathy for that POV - Franco's team looked they wanted to take the easy route for sure.
Still true tho' - Franco might have least gone for it in R2

He hurt him with a punch. Not with the thumb.
This is bull... There was not headbutt

Andre Ward says ...
No head butt, not enough to go off of.
Mexicans are saying the same now.
Question is are 2 rounds enough to score a fight ?
I saw draw rematch it.

the fairest thing is moloney win and immediate third fight

if it's a punch that caused it it's a tko, no need for scoring

AFter half an hour they found the magic headbutt.

Official

No Decision.
It's a draw.

They just spent 15 minutes to review the replay and still managed to get it wrong. Somehow the swelling was caused by a headbutt, even though no headbutt ever happened.

Embarrassing.

OMFG! What is going on here.

fornicate Boxing.

WAR BROOK

Robert Byrd.

hell rule it a dq win for franco then lol

Maybe the fight polls should start including "the officials will just pretend something happened that didn't really happen."
