In my opinion, the only black eye he landed in that fight was on the sport of horse racing.

What does his riding ability or his stats of late have to do with the fact that he lost all chance to win the race and had the possibility of getting seriously injured by the actions of Castellano? Based on what happened, Jackie Davis would have had the right to get in Javy's face if she was aboard A U Miner.

As far as black eyes for the sport, I really believe the whole Life at Ten fiasco wins in that category in a runaway.

I agree - a bigger black eye.
