Rahman, Kid Diamond Struggle in Wins

[THE MASTERKUSH]

116-112 huerta
and i was leaning towards diamond (in the beginning). i gave him the 4th which should have been even or huertas.
felt sorry for huerta. he should of got the belt. an unknown stateside with 8 loses. hope this guy gets some bigger money fights. he well deserves it. did you hear post fight interview when diamond said he only had 3 days to prepare for a lefty. the announcer knew that was bull so he asked huerta when he learnt he would fight diamond and he said a month ago. even diamonds fans were booing when they heard the decision.it wasnt even close.
and compubox seemed way the fck off.

and i had the Wtf rahman/sykes fight a draw even with the 10/7 9th round. rahmans pathetic.261lbs. the up and comer sykes hurt him a few times.
man, so sorry for huerta.

I was seriously ill hearing that decision. The slow round up of the scorecards gave me that nagging feeling, and then, boom! another terrible BULLS**T boxing decision.

I'm sorry, but there is no way on Earth any sensible judge could give that decision to Diamond. Someones pockets were getting filled under the table. They worked out how to make it close and gave it to the fighter with the promoter behind him.

It makes me hate boxing. Sad that a guy can fight his life out and have it all taken away by clear corruption.

Bought judges for sure, 114-113 x2

No way

Maybe not. Consider this:

I gave the first three rounds to Huerta, but, after 6, I had Diamond down 4-2. He dominated most of the later rounds, except for the 11th, where he was KD'd. At the end of the fight, I had it 6-6, minus one point for the KD, so I had Huerta winning 114-113. Not a robbery, just a close, close fight. Just one round more goes to Kid Diamond and he wins it 114-113 (as the two judges had it).

I thought Huerta won, but I'm not going to call this one a robbery because of how close I had it to begin with. Without the KD, a draw would've been what I scored.

BTW, how about round 5 for Round of the Year?

I didn't watch the whole broadcast; can someone tell me if Joe Mesi was there?

Great, great fight, but a real robbery. And yes, the boos were a lot louder in person!

As far as I know Joe Mesi wasn't there, but I thought Nick Charles and Wally Matthews really worked well together. That was a good hiring by Versus getting Nick Charles as there blow by blow guy.
