    Robbery? I Know We Use that Term Too Much But

    I don't really think you could find 7 rounds for Estrada. The first round and a couple of those middle rounds, but I thought there were at least 6 clear obvious rounds for Gonzalez.

    There were alot of close rds, few clear rds at all for either fighter.

    No robbery or anything resembling that in Estrada getting the nod since you couldn't find 7 clear decisive rds for Choco either.

    If they scored the fight for him close that would have been fine too 117-111 is bs tho.

      There's more money to make in a 3rd fight, Whenever announcers start to exaggerate something a losing fighter does (jab, hook etc), expect a b***s**t decision.

        I thought there were at least 6 clear rounds for Gonzalez. Clear doesn't have to mean dominating, but at least 6 rounds where he was doing the better work, the effective aggressor, and landing many more clean punches.

            I didn't but a couple rds a piece you could clearly say either man won. Stretches too where Choco was waiting and Estrada landing first and last at points in rds

              You may think you're getting under my skin. You're not. In fact because whenever you have to resort to calling me racist names like that it means you know you have zero leg to stand on intellectually and your argument is TRASH.

                I thought Gonzalez won at least 7 clear rounds. Close, but I'd have to say this was a robbery. Especially that 117-111 scorecard.

                  It was a robbery and right now it's an early contender for Robbery of the Year.

                  Some fights are just clear cut robberies: Paulie vs. Juan Diaz, Casamayor vs. Santa Cruz, Chisora vs. Helenius etc. Where clearly one fighter wins 9-10 rounds and manages to get robbed of the decision.

                  But there are also these "close but clear" variety. Where a fighter CLEARLY wins 7 rounds in a fight, and you can't make an argument for his opponent winning. That's the robbery that this falls under.

                    You've actually been banned for being a racist before
