Arthur Abraham looked a bit sad sitting at ringside: didn't Wegner call him a "coward" after the Froch loss?
Lebedev was exploiting Huck's Abraham-like style well until Cotton started calling low blows, which seemed to take the steam out of Lebedev.Comment

I didn't see the fight, but I haven't read one report calling this fight a robbery...this isn't another boxingscene knee-jerk reaction is it?Comment

from badlefthookUltimately, the scores were 115-113, 115-113 and 112-116 in favor of Huck. Bad Left Hook scored the fight 116-112 for Lebedev. While this wasn't an outright robbery due in large part to the closeness of so many early rounds, it certainly was a hometown decision.Comment

It was close and very hard to score: many of the rounds were pick'em.
Lebedev was the aggressor and I thought he edged it, but Huck was the champ and fighting at home, so it wasn't a surprise that he got the nod.Comment

Don't know if my report makes the news list (or maybe it'll be added to an undercard description at "Huck vs. Lebedev early results") but I had it 117-114 - for Lebedev, with three rounds even. I do think Lebedev has done enough to take it fair and square. But... It's Germany. Also my own point of view can be biased (as I live and work in Moscow) but I noticed lots of presumably neutral fans also scored this scrap for Denis, and it's hard to find more than 10-12 persons around the entire Web who saw it in Huck's favour. Peace...Comment

So in other words, coinciding with badlefthook's report, Huck was given the benefit of the doubt of the close rounds due to those two factors?
Again, nobody has called this fight a robbery...Comment
