I think if I had the same score as HBO and two of the three judges, it's pretty safe to say it was close but it was clearcut

It wasn't clearcut at all. I'd wager that about half of the people who watched the fight had B-Hop winning. I had him winning a close fight, myself.

It was an incredibly close fight, and it is definitely worthy of a rematch. There was no clearcut here, that's why there's so much debate about it.

A clearcut, yet close victory, was Pacquiao vs Morales, where most people had Morales winning the fight, but it was still close seven rounds to five. There were debators there, and I scored it for Pacquiao the first time I saw it but Morales the others. It wasn't really controversial. This was, and a lot of people felt, and still feel that B-Hop won the fight. It's hardly clearcut.
