Cejudo Calls for Roach to Appeal Result of Fight with Davis

Former UFC champion in two weight classes, Henry Cejudo, criticized the judges' decision in the fight between Gervonta Davis and Lamont Roach for the WBA lightweight title.

The bout went the full 12 rounds, with two judges scoring it a draw at 114-114, while the third judge awarded Davis the win at 115-113. A controversial moment happened in the ninth round when Davis went down but referee Steve Willis did not consider it a knockdown.
