Poll: Sturm vs Macklin. Who really won?

[Hayehammer]

I scored it a draw 114-114.

Sturm was landing the cleaner, more hurtful shots throughout most of the fight, while Macklin was coming forward and throwing more punches most of the time.

I have no problem with the SD win for Sturm. There were at least four very close rounds that could have gone to either boxer.

I made a few bets on Macklin. I thought he might be able to get through Sturm's guard, but he could not.

Macklin did get through sturms guard early on were he had more power!
look at his face after the fight! the body work of macklin took a lot out of sturm!
That was very smart from macklin or he would have not finished the fight on his feet in the 12 round!

[Evil Abed]

I had a draw.

[Faerun]

Macklin 116:114 or 115:113 are the only valid answers. Even a draw would be a stretch.

[DoktorSleepless]

My generous scorecard would be a draw, but my unbridled opinion is that Macklin won by a decent margin.

[hent]

Macklin was out on his feet at the end. He spat out his gumshield to buy himself time during the fight as well. Sturm took this guy to school. He was the one landing the cleaner shots and making Macklin miss.

117-111.

[TheAuthority]

I thought Macklin won. Some of the rounds were extremely close and very difficult to score. There was no robbery though - close fight and very entertaining.

[Spit Venom]

7-5 scorcard for Mack the Knife was the best card.

you can clearly see that the business takes over the sport.

[BattlingNelson]

114-114 was my score.

[BattlingNelson]

Macklin 115-113

You score a fight 7-5 and then you make the thread about Haye needing a KO to win because of it.

lol.

that's bull**** man, I have zero interest in sturm or macklin. All I wanted to do is watch some boxing and it turned out to be a very entertaining fight. As a fan of boxing I would like a fair outcome. Sorry if that sounds like crying and maybe it's expected that the ****'s in germany rob fighters on a monthly basis but when I feel one guy got shafted I'm going to express my opinions.

You should be banned for that...
