I don't. I thought Carr came from behind and pulled it off in a close one. thoughts?

Haven't seen the fight in a while but I don't remember it as being a controversial decision, I thought Quartey outjabbed Carr and outworked him, Carr was flashier with his punchers though but as I said, haven't seen the fight in a while.

Not close for me, Carr was getting a beating towards the end but toughed it out, he really dug in which he deserved credit for but i thought he lost clearly.

Lopez beat Quartey though imo.

Agree on Quartey-Carr (props to Carr for 3 gutsy performances against Quartey, DLH and Trinidad), disagree on Quartey-Lopez. I had the knockdowns making it a closer decision but Quartey had far too many rounds in the bank at that point. His jab was thudding off Lopez's head constantly for 10 rounds of the fight if memory serves, while Lopez was landing 3-5 punches a round. Lopez won the last 2 rounds huge, but still. I even thought a draw was borderline criminal. Different perspectives, I guess.

I agree with this completely. Quartey outlanded Lopez and won many rounds on the strength of the jab, despite being dropped a couple of times.

I had Quartey beating Carr by several points.
