Thanks for posting the scorecards.

As you can see folks, the fight was very close, with the exceptions of rounds 4 and 11 on Marty Denkins' card, I have no problems with any of them, although I gave round 12 to Tarver as I stated in the other thread.

Ok....now that makes a little morse sense. I swear I heard Michael Buffer say that the female judge had the fight 116-112 Johnson. I might have been hearing this......or maybe he disd say it wrong. I'd have to watch the fight again...with the actual score card in front of me to see if I would have a problem with anything. I know for a fact that I thought Tarver won round 12 with very heavy clean shots in the first minute.

No way Glencoffe won round 12. There's just no way. Are judges afraid to give ties? That's one of the only reasons I can see for this happening.

Tarver nailed Johnson in the 12 and took the 1st minute clearly.

With the exception of when Tarver was off balance and fell across the ring, Tarver controlled that round.

I also gave round 11 to Tarver and I though he did enough in the last 30 seconds of the 4th ( I think it was) to win that round as well.

I hate Tarver and his running mouth, and wished Jones smoked him like Tarver smoked Jones, but in this particular fight, I though Tarver won.

Luckily we get a rematch and this will be settled. However, I thought that Tarver was going to have some bigger fish to fry with a possible bout at heavyweight.

Thanks for the info..interesting
