    One round? One goddamned round?

    Ok, I am not going to call this a robbery because it wasn't by any stretch, but, when you have a judge that is quite simply on the take, then no matter how Martinez did he was going to lose one scorecard, which is a robbery. If he had won ten rounds he would have lost one scorecard still.

    When you beat the hell out of a guy for three decisive rounds in a fight as well as winning at least two to four more, depending on how you see it, there is nothing else it can be.

    The overall fight wasn't a robbery. Let me get that straight. If some had Williams winning, that's all cool, I can see it and if some had Martinez that's cool too, because he just as easily could have won it.

    When one judge though, no matter what he saw, was going to give Williams the fight it means it's a robbery. It is exactly like Gail Van Hoye. That fight could have gone either way very easily but he chose to screw Paulie over no matter if he had done everything but knock him out.

    Martinez, in my opinion, won a very close fight but no matter how you score a fight and what you look for in a fighter you cannot have given Williams anything more eight rounds. No matter how you saw it. Martinez won at least four rounds pretty easily. That judge gave Martinez one ****ing round!

    How? Which one was it? The first in which he scored the main KD? The second in which he pounded Williams from pillar to post? The third in which he again won the round easily with harder shots? Maybe it was the ninth or tenth?

    The sad thing is that this had been happening more and more lately. Over the last series of fights there has been one BS, corrupt decision or scorecard after another.

    No one cares who won, but they care how? That was a disgrace.

    It was a close fight. It may go to Martinez or Williams. But a scoring it to 119-110 bull****.

    I'm thinking he bet his house on Williams on that fight. That was an overkill score.

      It was a very even fight. But imagine this. The judge saw it as an even fight too. But in his opinion Williams edged every round by lets say a punch. Or he counted "aggression" and Williams was the one coming forward most of the time. I hope some fans or "coming forward" or "aggression" as opposed to the "american style" now realize only coming forward doesn't, shouldn't win fights. Anyway, that judge could have given every round but one to Williams even seeing it as a close fight.

      Because lets face it, this fight had no momentum shifts, there were no clear rounds for either side so it is possible they had every round for one of them.

      This was not Dirrell vs Froch, this fight saw BOTH guys LANDING enormous amounts of shots (Williams ****ed up big time again). Martinez was more effective and hurt Williams more, so you could score it that way. Or you could see that Williams landed more shots and was the one pressing the fight more and score it for Williams.

        Judge Pierre Benoist must have been watching a fight in the crowd or something, because there's no way he was watching the same fight that I was watching.
