    Absolutely. I'd start paying for PPV's again instead of watching them online for free and laughing at HBO.

      Berto won clearly 7-5 or 8-4.He outlanded collazo,and hit him with big big power punches.They are no way that Collazo Berto fight is robbery.

          just go to a bar or invite friends over to help pay for it. streams are usually lousy, and HBO has been cracking down on them lately, they aint reliable.

          its way more fun at a bar. at least to me.

            When I watched it last night I had it 114-113 for Collazo, but I'll have to rewatch it and see if anything changes. Either way it was a close fight, Berto closed the show, Collazo did not. The 12th round lost Collazo the fight....Berto just wanted it a little more.

              That's assuming you live somewhere that has bars cool enough to carry fights.

                first of all, this was a fantastic fight. just great. yall may not agree on who won, but we should all agree that there should be a rematch.

                I had Berto winning 7-5...in other words, by 1 point. this fight was easy to score, other than one round...the 6th. which honestly could have gone either way. I went ahead and watched it twice just to make sure I was giving it to the right guy. but this just in...if one round could have gone either way, and the whole fight was decided by one round...ITS NOT A ROBBERY.

                even Lederman got the rounds right, other than the 7th round...he must have gone to the bathroom or something during that round, that was probebly the most dominant round for Berto all night, but he gave it to Collazo. huh? but honestly, this fight was not that hard to score.
                Berto won rounds 2,5,7,8,11,12
                Collazo won rounds 1,3,4,9,10
                and the 6th was the only real close one.
                Exactly......I agree word for word .....I gave the 6th to Berto.....no robbery!

                  Collazo was robbed, no question about it.

                  2 years ago he was mugged by a bunch of thugs and was robbed. This fight? Nah he wasn't robbed.

                    I dont actually. I live in a very rural area. redneck country. in fact, Im almost a redneck myself. I like country music a lot at least, haha.

                    just have to do some exploring. generally, its more cost effective to drive pretty far out of your way to go to a bar than to order the ppv. although I can understand other people's situations, its a pain in the butt sometimes.

                      HBO can only crack down on so many streams. The bigger the fight, the more sources for a stream. There's no way in hell they're stopping Margarito/Mosley from being online next week.

                      As for me, I have no friends in real life who care a bit about boxing. That's why I come here, to discuss it with you guys. And I'm not shelling out any more money for **** undercards and only 1 good fight. (Main event)
