    No robbery.

    Just that the 8-4 cards were a bit wide for such a close fight.

      116-112 seems a bit wide. A split decision is appropriate in this great and close fight.

      Mac deserves a rematch.

      I cannot understand why Sturm allowed the fight to be a phonebooth battle though.

          I had it a draw in the end, and it could have gone either way to each fighter by a round but those scorecards are just way too wide.

              What did you have ALexander-Kotelnik? 120-104? Deducted points from Kotelnik for avoiding 1000 air punches?

              Sturm deserved the win, I wouldve been fine with a draw TBH. I had it 116-113 exactly like the 2 judges AND I HATE STURM SINCE HE HIDES.

                Can't give my opinion on the scorecards since I started watching the fight in the 6th round. But I saw a back and forth fight from the 6th-12th and if the majority of had it 5-2 for Macklin at the end of the 7th, then Macklin should have won something like 8-4.

                    Some of you guys need glasses and learn how to judge a fight. Air Punches and Wild combos that do NO DMG = not a win.
                    Are the other 18 and a half thousand posts as **** as this one?
