What a rip off! Hernandez is a coward & knows dam well Mattice started kicking his a$$ so ref & him lied to give him a score card win cause he was only getting weaker as the fight went on.The first cut was a head clash which was controlled by his corner but the cut they stopped the fight for was the second cut which came from a right punch to his left eye! What cheaters in Mexico my goodness and well as Mexican fighters are,they should all be ashamed. Just Disgusting!!!
