I thought Lopez won the first but both guys were feeling out. I had Salido winning all but the fifth from there. Salido really launched in two.
I was out and didn't get in until the 6th round. Rewound the DVR and started over, keeping two scorecards: the real one and the hometown card. I had Salido winning on both, 7-2 on the real (Lopez winning 1 and 5) and 5-4 on the hometown (with the crowd willing Lopez to the 8th and 9th for the judges). I thought a case could be made to give four on a hometown card as well (otherwise rationally a Salido round). That's where you get 86-84. Total nonsense but I might have to do this all the time going forward.
disagree heavily with Juanma winning teh first round(salido landed right hands and a left power shot, effective and landed more...not an ass kicking by a long shot, but clear imo)...but at the end of the day its meaningless....salido had it on lock.
at the bold......boxing judges are such a joke man...

Lopez landed some nice stuff as well. There was one chin shot from Salido that caught my eye in particular. whew.
It makes me SMH. I was like, "well, he lost that one. If I was going to rob Salido, I'd give that to Lopez for coming forward and getting tagged."
was doing the same while watching Cloud-Campillo the other day
This is just God Awful. I mean, bad scores have always been around. But with the much lesser volume of fights, their regularity is standing out more than ever. We've had Campillo-Cloud, this crappy scoring, Pierre Benoist turning in another epic turd a couple weeks ago on ESPN, Luis Pabon almost ruining Povetkin-Huck.

It's stomach turning.
The scoring at the time of stoppage for this one was so bad it reminded me of a classic fight.
Mike Tyson - Buster Douglas. Time of stoppage Ken Morita had Tyson ahead by a point and another judge had it a draw.
Only difference is in the Tyson fight there was a 3rd judge watching the fight who had it correct, in this case, all 3 guys were watching something on youtube instead of the action in the ring.
