One thing I know is that the ref was asleep. All his attention should have been focused on the boxers. Especially after attempting to pull them apart and resuming the bout.
Usually the bout starts again with the fighters fully separated by some distance and then the ref gives the signal to start boxing again with the fighters stepping into one another again.
i agree, the ref was an idiot. shoulda known with all his BS about , what was it, firm but fair? he ended up an old fool who lost control of the fight.
i bought the fight on HBO, as well as the last pacquio fight. dont think i ll buy another. those two were both awful and not worth the $120 total i shelled out.
plus, mayweather acted like a moron after the fight in my opinion. he shoulda not allowed himself to get baited on world wide tv.
