I was rewatching this fight last night and had a slightly different scorecard than the first time. I had a 115-112 García win the first time around. Last night, I gave a 114-113 win for García. All in all, it was a very good performance for Morales.
What are some the scorecards for that fight? Did anyone else have different scorecards after rewatching?
I think the official scores were way off. One of the judges had a 118-109 for García and that's beyond ridiculous. One of the cards was 116-111 and that's not so bad, but I think Erik managed to win, at least, five rounds, maybe six.
Still, I think García won it by a small margin.
I think Morales was doing the same as Judah, getting stronger and was hitting García clean but then he got caught and knocked down. But yeah, it was definitely a close fight, a little bit wider because of the knock down but still a close fight.
I know the fight is old but since there has been a lot of García talk lately, I'm sure there have to be a few scorecards/opinions regarding this fight.
