      Absolutely not, because then I could buy that the judge actually watched and scored the fight, and came to a reasonable decision as to who won.

          Whether that judge had it 119-110 or 115-113 the outcome does not change.

            1- Martinez
            2-Martinez
            3-Martinez
            4-Williams
            5- Williams
            6- Williams
            7-Williams
            8-Martinez
            9-Williams
            10-Martinez
            11-Williams
            12-Williams

            115-113 Williams is how I scored it. I thought round 11 could've went either way but I gave it to Williams because Martinez seemed like he was holding on for dear life.

              It's not about Paul Williams winning, it's about the judge deciding before the fight even started Sergio Martinez was losing! That's the only way a judge for a professional boxing match of this magnitude can score THAT fight THAT way.

                  When a judge scores a fight like that by that wide a margin, he was never going to give the fight to the person who lost no matter what happened. That means the fighter who won had a judge giving him the fight before it even started. That means the fighter who lost was robbed. This has nothing to do with whether Paul Williams deserved to win, it was a close fight, either fighter could be considered the winner. One judge decided he was giving the fight to Paul Williams no matter what, that means Sergio Martinez was ROBBED.
                  Cosign this 100% one judge had his mind made up that pwill would win before the fight even started. And because of that one judge, it was a robbery.

But once again one bad scorecard makes everyone **** their pants and makes them scream robbery. Bad scorecard yes, robbery no. Could have gone to either man.
                    I agree the fight could have gone either way by one or two pts and I would have been ok with it. These guys that are whining are probably still upset about the Guzman vs Funeka debacle, that left a bad taste in boxing and in all of us.
