Funny how people are so afraid of actually checking something what may prove them wrong ;). I guess it's better to stay away from so called "idiot proof"(no offence).
I say Rios landed more punches overall and I stick to it, I just checked two rounds randomly and it confirmed. Still as you see I scored the fight wide for Abril as fight is scored on CLEAN EFFECTIVE punches and Abril was the one who was landing cleaner and more effective punches all night long, I'm just giving you the reason why judges are untouchable really with that subjective scoring that we have unless you don't leave them any room to interpretation. Abril didn't do that, he let Rios land on his body in clinches all fight without answering, what kept Rios close in most of the rounds in terms of punches. You add him being aggressor and here you go, you have two thiefts with good alibi.
I've seen the fight.
Rios did not land more punches than Abril.
Stay off the drugs, for your own sake.

Yes, go watch some random rounds and count a punches and you'll be surprised.
I just counter punches in round 1 and 3. In first one bout landed the same amount of punches, in 3-rd Rios clearly outlanded Abril by like 10 punches. Difference? Rioses punches were mostly to the body and in clinches, but still those are punches as you are allowed to punch with one hand when the other guy is doing the holding.
Stay off the drugs, for your own sake.
I thought that Abril completely dominated the fight. I had him winning 119-109 and I only saw 2 or 3 other rounds that I thought were even competitive. Abril dictated the pace, seemed to land a lot more punches, seemed to land all of the hard punches. I hardly saw Rios land any clean punches and I don't think he was the busier guy either. If I watched the fight again and paid real close attention, I might score it a little differently but overall I don't see how anyone can give Rios more than 4 rounds. Giving him 7 and 8 like two of the judges did is absolutley absurd. In an ideal world, there would be an investigation into those judges and they would be suspended or banned for life. However Bob Arum is so powerful right now that he is able to pay off judges and people just let it fly. If the roles were reversed and Rios was Abril and Abril was Rios in this situation then you can bet your life that there would be an investigation underway by now.
On which Planet?

He landed a good shot that wobbled Abril in one of the first 2 rounds.
But that's literally it.
And I probably only remember that because I just this second watched it for the first time.
First round, he caught Abril with a right hand. I don't think it really wobbled him though, it looked more like balance to me.
However, I think that was the only round I gave to Rios. Maybe one other round, more to be nice than anything :lol1:
I don't think it is on a different planet~ I would say a different dimension the opposite dimension where everything is the exact opposite of this dimension
sounds about right. to me, its nothing in the fight u could say rios did better. nothing. sure he came forward but he came forward and did ****.

Do I think that it was robbery? Yeah, because I know those judges and they are known for scoring fights for fighters that "suppose to win". But another thing is that Abril didn't separate himself enough during the fight in most of the rounds, thus he gave those 2 Arums friends chance to take that win away from him. And now, even if commision could make a meeting with them and ask for their scoring, they'd have good arguments in their hands why they scored the fight the way they did, because:
A) Rios landed MORE PUNCHES.
B) Rios was way more active.
C) IT's not that those harder punches from Abril was hurting or affecting Rios either.
That's reality.

So let me get this straight, The TS scored the fight 117-111 to abril but then he wanted us to tell him which 7 rounds abril won clearly? How about you show us your 117-111 scorecard?

Seriously?
yes seriously. Rios was active, I'll give him that. But throwing glancing blows and punching elbows doesn't mean anything the way I score fights.
He landed a good shot that wobbled Abril in one of the first 2 rounds.
But that's literally it.
And I probably only remember that because I just this second watched it for the first time.
From what I remember, Abril was just off balance
:lol1: :lol1:
People seriously cannot be claiming this fight wasn't a robbery.
People saying other clear robberies aren't robberies are bad enough.
But this fight? Surely not.
Abril won 10 rounds, 9 at the very least. Clearly.
Naw. You're just a "hater".
God forbid you watch a fight, and give a honest opinion about the outcome.
I literally don't remember a single punch that Rios landed.

As a Rios fan, once the bell sounded for the 12th round I thought their goes his undefeated record, but when the announcer read out the scorecard and I heard 117-111 for Richard Abril I knew they were gonna give it Rios.
In my scorecard he won no more than 3 rounds and I gave him the 1st because of the straight right which made Abril wobble.
Thereafter it was a boxing clinic from Abril, great defence, good footwork, tagged Rios all night and it is a shame for boxing in general
