Jose Benavidez landed much better shots than Herrera

Herrera clearly lost that fight, and I like herrera too he from phoenix like I am but it is what it is. Hererra aint from phoenix.... he aint even from riverside... hes from lake elsinore, and he lost this fight 7-5... thats just the way it is!

If he punched that much harder and his shots were that much more effective then why did he spend long periods of the fight on the ropes? Herrera won 8-4 Because he was seeing what hererra had... which wasnt much... those pitty patty shots were negated by hard uppercuts that were snapping herreras head back each shot!!! Benavidez won 7-5 on my card in a close fight....going by your logic doe, de la hoya should of beat mayweather...compubox hardly lies and in this case jr got the nod, rightfully so!

I actually predicted a robbery, and I don't think it was one. Close enough to go either way, depending on what you like.

I saw Herrera fighting his fight more often.

I thought It was a draw. It definitely wasnt a robbery. There were like 8 close rounds that could have gone either way. Either way, that rematch will happen later on. Benevidez was still rushed to this fight. He never did 12 rounds, and I heard he was 173 a month out from the fight.

I dont disagree with that. I think in no way should this fight be called a "robbery" though. I think the scorecards were awful but imo this fight was a 6-6 or 7-5 fight either way. I had Benavidez winning because of his rally in the 11th and 12th rounds. I was very impressed with Benavidez for being 22 and fighting the way he did facing the huge step up in competition. He has a lot to work on though when he pulls straight back he is wide open for a straight right hand and a bigger puncher may cause him some serious problems. I personally think if they rematch Benavidez wins a clear decision but that is just my opinion. That is the problem...That is what makes it a robbery...The crazy scores..That is why people are crying foul...A draw?..can you imagine 2 draws in one night when everybody(most) had a clear winner?

Agree with OP. We don't need to even have any boxing matches anymore Whoever seems like they hit harder wins Who's with me?

He is much bigger so he should have landed the harder shots... That's the only thing that made him effective was that he was so much bigger

I thought it was a robbery, but that could be because of the whole Garcia situation, and the rhetoric with Herrera is he "always gets robbed." But I thought he won though.

He had a chance to school Herrera and failed. Struggled actually. And lost on my card. I dont disagree with that. I think in no way should this fight be called a "robbery" though.

Well naturally he's a bigger stronger puncher. From styles comparable, Benevidez should have never been where Herrera took him. But that's what Herrera does because he's a bad ass.
