“I feel like all the knees I threw in this fight were legal. I asked for the rules to be explained to me after the fight, but no one was able to explain to me the decision on this episode. I consider Mark Goddard to be one of the best judges, but he made a mistake here. I was close to finishing the fight early. Evloev was shocked, and his hand was in the air every time I hit him with my knee. Even if he touched the canvas with his hand, it was only with his fingers, and did not rest with his palm, so everything was according to the rules. And yes, I really believe that I was close to an early victory,” said the fighter.
Let us remind you that Allen lost to Evloev by unanimous decision.
