    Most of Press Row Had Margarito Beating Williams in the First Fight...

    An interesting article I dug up on Yahoo! Sports with press row scores for the fight. Doesn't sound to me like Williams dominated anyone that night...

    You see where they are from dont you? Especailly Steve Kim and Doug Fischer, of couse they are gonna have the guy winning whom they have access to for their site. Just about everyone on tha list is west coast so there is bias there, Paul Williams did enough early to win that fight.

        Williams won the fight. I can't believe people are trying to debate this.

            Did you watch the fight or are you basing your opinion on the match from the article?

                  it was a close fight saying there was a clear winner is dumb, saying one guy got robbed is also just as dumb.
