Comments Thread For: Devon Alexander Holds On To Defeat Matthysse

[zero15]

It was a close fight but I had Matthysse as the winner. That first judge was off in my opinion. It's been said before but I'll say it again, the sanctioning body should hire the judges not the promoter. They should also allow the referees to be one of the judges. Its pretty bad that a great sport like boxing can be turned to crap by bad scoring.

Of the people crying robbery, have no clue what each judges view is like from ringside. It was a close fight.

It was close but ya boy Devon lost that fight. lol

Lol these guys coming out the woodworks today.

both you two are sorry racist cowards too. this is boxing.it has nothing to do with race. this is about bad judging. its not to late to enjoy life.

wow...

Rematch!!! 12 FULL ROUNDS, NO BS!

Should Matt have gotten the nod? Maybe, but he continues to start slow losing the critical early rounds and thats why Devon won tonight...

I had Devon winning 1-3(4, flash KD Lucas got outworked, even rd) 9,10 and Lucas winning 3 rounds straight 6,7, and 8, all in all I thought it was a draw but knew obviously Devon would get the hometown nod...

If it was a 12 round fight though I think Devon would have won anyway as he seemed to get his 2nd wind in rd 9(did the same thing with Bradley until fight was stopped) an Lucas was starting to fade a little

Not sure if all this hype over altitude training is really beneficial to these fighters...

It is what it is, A rematch somewhere down the line would be great to see 12 rounds this is top tier pro boxing how can the MainE not be 12 rds?!?!

Lucas clearly won had it been a 12 ROUND fight devon would of gotten more hurt.

it's really frustrating saw this ****s. another Hometown Decision. lucas cleary win the fight. They are killing boxing with these decisions.
after fight lucas said in the interview with argentina, between tears and laughter. next time I came with the police.

Lucas is becoming a stepping stone, hopefully his next fight doesn't turn out like this.

HORSE**** -- Devon got the nod because Don King paid off two judges, just like he did with the Kotelnik fight. One of them was even the same judge! Open your eyes.

Not much he can do to get a decision in the USA, home of corrupt judges.
