Props to Neekz for being a good sport when they announced Hughes as the winner. I watched the fight live and thought a huge robbery just occurred, but Neekz congratulated her opponent and embraced her when most fighters would have complained. After they got the announcement right you can see how much the win meant to her, pure tears of joy. I feel bad for Hughes though, it has to be rough thinking you've defended your title after a tough fight, only to find out moments later that you lost. Brutal.

Referees collect the scorecard after each round and hand it to the supervisor. He would have looked and kept a total in his head
