Comments Thread For: Hernandez Gets Split Nod On Cunningham, Wins Title

[mathed]

sounds like a ripoff to me......

[Larry the boss]

almost as bad as getting suckerpunched

ref said "lets go"waved them in to fight...Ortiz wanted to hug..floyd wanted to fight.....................stop crying

Cunningham got the screw. I had him win 4 rounds and he really started to gain in the 5th and 6th. IMO Hernandez lost the edge and was mostly winging it.

I had Hernandez winning RD1 10-8 and i had him winning RD 2 and 4

Round 4? Honestly, your scorecard is no better than the judges.

I also had Hernandez ahead 57-56 but that's beside the point. The point is Wegner stopped the fight cause Cunningham had momentum and had won the last two rounds with massive body work that had Hernandez gasping for air. The way I saw it Cunningham was on his way to KO him and Wegner stopped the fight even know the cuts were not bleeding to secure a points win for his quitter so called fighter. A real fighter wants to fight, Hernandez played dumb and went along with it. A very cowardly way to win a title and if that's the way he wants it, so be it but I won't call him a champion but a chicken!!!

Truth is the fight should have been stopped in the first round.Cunningham was knocked out and Micky Ward should have done a proper job instead of throwing sympathy in there.Cunningham was also using his head too many times and that cut Hernandez got was intentional.I've never seen such bad refereeing before.

The only reason Cunningham started gaining was because of his headbutts.Those headbutts took too much from Henandez.Before Henandez got butted Cunningham was getting hurt by every shot from Henandez.

The Polish judge should never be allowed to judge again,not even in a do race

Indeed. But I think the fight needs a rematch outside Germany with a different ref and judges.

Ulli Wegner is German who coaches Hernandez, the fight was in Germany. What do you expect?

I believe Cunningham is promoted by Sauerland, which has Mob-like control of boxing in Germany. Both fighters had German connections
