Bigger robbery: Alexander-Matthysse or Sturm-Macklin?

[teddycanyon]

What was the bigger injustice? Personally I thought it would have been tougher to score the fight in Sturm's favor against Macklin than Alexander against Matthysse.

Was Alexander-Matthysse really a robbery?

I mean it was a close fight that could have gone either way. I know it was in Devon's hometown but Lucas knew what he was signing up for.

Matthyse-Alexander.

Macklin-Strum had a lot of close rounds, and Macklin gassed in the second half.

Matthyse-Alexander only had one close round in my opinion, round three. Alexander clearly lost the fight.

Agree I had Sturm winning.

I'd would say the Sturm fight. It was for the championship.

I have not seen one German (who have watched the fight live) think Sturm won the fight.
They were all pretty upset and many people said they arent going to watch a Sturm fight anytime soon.

best Ive seen was in a German boxing forum where a few users scored it a draw giving all close rounds to the "champion".

Matthyse got robbed, no question, tho.

Both were bad decisions.
