The judge’s scoring of the Moreno / Pantoja fight seemed weird. Were they watching the same fight?

I could’ve watched the Brazilian chick repeatedly bash the Mexican chick in the head for another 7-8 seconds.

They’re small, she would’ve been fine.

The 49 - 46 was crazy and on the wrong side of the fight. Still...that was a fun fight.
