His team then went on to add that the pugilist was \u2018robbed\u2019 as Mexican favourite Navarrete was allowed 27 seconds to recover from a trademark left hook that floored him in the fourth round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This recovery time proved to be a deal-breaker for Navarrete who bounced back with vengeance and won an 11th world title fight in a third division via a ninth-round stoppage. Navarrete has been unbeaten since 2012 and has now extended his record to 32 fights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilson believes that the precious 30 seconds could\u2019ve completely changed his career. A world title victory on his US debut would\u2019ve been an extremely shocking affair, comparable to the shock world title upsets by Jeff Horn five years ago and Jeff Harding nearly 30 years before that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, the bout itself unfolded after plenty of bizarre drama at the weigh-in on Thursday. Wilson appeared to be about 2 kg lighter than what he had expected to weigh on the scale. Meanwhile, his Mexican opponent snuck just under the 59kg super featherweight limit, leading to accusations of cheating and scale tampering to ensure the Top Rank star made weight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTo me it was just a big piss take and looked well and truly planned to buy him some time,\u201d Wilson told journalists in Arizona on Saturday (Sunday AEDT) of the delay that saw referee Chris Flores stop the count, pick up Navarrete\u2019s mouthguard and then re-insert it upside down.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI knew I was against it. The scales debacle a day before, then the ref\u2019s doing that. For us to cause the upset, they would have hated that \u2026 it was easy for them to sabotage because they had power in other areas.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Promoter No Limit immediately lodged a protest regarding this. The incident will now be reviewed by Arizona Boxing Commission at their next meeting on February 15.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liam Wilson continues to feel incensed and has reflected on what he considers a \u2018piss take\u2019 at an attempted heist of his world boxing title in Phoenix recently.&nbsp; Wilson has maintained that he is more than willing to take on Emanuel Navarrete again for the WBO title if his protest continues to be upheld.
