Comments Thread For: Team Campillo To File IBF Protest Over Cloud Decision

[Bermuda]

Don't feel bad for Campillo because he didn't ensure a win by going for the KO.
He's going to get a rematch and then get KTFO by Cloud who won't underestimate him this time. Campillo won the majority of rounds by boxing beautifully but he never had Cloud hurt and Campillo had opportunities to try to accomplish that but decided not too. He should have known after getting robbed in his previous fight that he has to do better. Also I felt like the ref saved his behind from getting starched when Cloud had him on the ropes.
So lets see a rematch in a couple months time.

well there were a couple of occasions where campillo actually looked like he was going to stop cloud..he was landing a bunch of quick/crisp combos and cloud wasn't even answering back.

Wow cant see why we are even debating this i thought it was real people tht know boxing on here. this was the worst robbery ive ever seen

He did the showboating in the 11th and 12th.

He had the job done.

thanx for proving my point, Campillo chose not to finish the fight. I had Campillo up 95-93 after the 10th......It happen to so many fighters and this was clearly another example of it...Campillo needed to raise his level in the champioship rounds and by him not trying for the ko.. it costed him...

Someone needed to remind Campillo that this was a 12 round CHAMPIONSHIP fight...

I wanna see the judges scorecards, cuz this is ridiculous. Sure, Campillo took his foot off the pedal in the last 3, but not to the extent that he out-right LOST those rounds, he was still blasting Cloud with 3-6 punch combinations and kept mixing up his attack. Cloud landed a good counter-right near the end of the one of those rounds (can't remember which one) but still, that doesn't justify giving him the entire round.

The idealogy of "You have to beat the champ" is bull****, and i've always felt it was bull****. The only other thing Campillo could've done to Cloud was drop him, but even THEN, he still would've lost on the cards. He had to stop him, which is what makes this fight a blatant robbery.

Campillo had Cloud hurt in the 11th and was thumping him. Ref cut Cloud a break when he was hurt.

Don king aint even promoting this fight

Alexander is a Don King fighter......the failsafe plan is already in place.

Been saying it....but no doubt he gets the fight if he would of dropped Cloud, no doubt

i wouldn't say hurt...maybe landed a good shot.but cloud clearly fought back or tried to counter everytime Campillo got near...

Your best argument is that Campillo lost the fight by easing up in the last 2 rounds, but he arguably won round 11 (I had him winning it) and I think he definitely won round 12. Maybe not comfortably, but somewhat clearly. And you're wrong that he would have won it for sure if he'd knocked Cloud down. If he had knocked him down in one of the rounds that he already won, he would still have lost the fight 113-112. If he had stolen a round they gave to Cloud with a knockdown, then it would have been a split draw. Especially if the latter scenario had occurred in round 12- because the judges already turned in all their scorecards for the prior rounds. They can't go back and change rounds from Cloud to Campillo (barring math mistakes) just because Campillo finally got around to knocking Cloud down.

Your posts have been rather ignorant.
