I dont want to repeat whats already been said about how bad Cintrons behaviour was etc - yes it looks as though he probably dived out of the ring, however....
My problem with this fight is how the judges and general boxing public are scoring fights. It seems general concensus from most people that williams won this fight clearly in the 3 rounds we witnessed.... Frankly I dont see how.
Williams plods forward and lands very little - his jab falls short and he is out of range time and time again.
Cintron is moving beautifully, avoiding the jab and landing a good jab of his own. He is countering well and generally landing the cleaner shots.
Have we now got to a point where a fighter is judged to win a round because he moves forward and holds the centre of the ring?? Where has the sweet science gone??
