Originally posted by DudeMan, you have to feel sorry for Golota. He got robbed of two titles in one year. I've only seen this one round by round. What is the opinion of the people who watched the fight on TV?
And Ruiz was the only one deducted a point for a foul, which could be "highly disputed" as well.
I knew the fight was potentially close on the cards because Lederman had Golota by a point - I said to my friend, "It will suck if Ruiz loses by one or two of those bogus points"
Golota didn't deserve to win a title this way - in the strangest fight I've ever seen.

Originally posted by neils7147933No way - Golota lost this by more than the final margin showed. He got a gift point in Round 2 where he shoved Ruiz to the ground and then punched him WHILE HE WAS ON THE GROUND - I was waiting for Roy Jones to make a joke - "You can't do that. I know." But the camera showed it clearly and the announcers concurred.

Originally posted by Rick ReenoAre you blind? 114-111 in favor of Ruiz means that after the 4th round which was 10-8, the judges awarded every single round from 5-12 to John Ruiz in order to make it a 114-111 margin (that includes Ruiz winning the first round) Which means all Golota had on two cards was winning the 2, 3 and 4 rounds.

I didnt agree with the second knockdown BUT this isnt Football and there is no instant replay. The knockdown counted and as far as the point taken away, it was a legit foul. Ruiz was given plenty of ref support after the fact with plenty of fouls he let slide such as punching Golota after the bell after a few rounds. Ruiz should have lost 100 points for holding over and over and over and over. Just look at VBMartin's hold count thread.

This fight didn't even resemble boxing at times. The ref did a good job for maintaining order, but should have curbed the fighting after the bell, and definitely should have penalized more than one fight between the 2! It's a good thing a belt didn't change hands on a spectacle such as this.
