    Then I saw the actual judges scorecards and realised, it was a robbery. Not just the 119-110 card.
    8-4? You cannot judge a fight to save your life. Williams won 7-5, most people on here running their mouths have not even watched the fight. Also, I find it hilarious you call Williams an overhyped internet sensation when you seem to be all over Kell Brook. At least Williams beat top 5 opponents, Brook is yet to fight somebody in the top 25.

      the "at least he didn't get knocked out" credit.... well until the second fight where Martinez ended his career
      Yeah...kind of funny that Williams gave Margarito a lesson despite that cheater having loaded gloves and Williams still got the W in Cali, breaking down Margarito in the 12th round after easily winning the first 6. By the way, his career did not look over in his last fight. Unlike that chump in your sig that got destroyed by a midget and couldn't continue against a shot Cotto HAHA.

            I think Williams victory over Martinez is better than Margarito's, considering where Sergio was in his career when he fought each guy.

            Looking at Williams resume:

            Martinez
            Wright
            Margarito
            Ishida
            Quintana

            How good does this really make Williams?
            Williams lost but he gets every decision Ask Lara

              Yeah, I'd have to agree with most of the other guy's that Sergio was jipped in that fight.

              It was a great fight and it had many close rounds, but I thought it had a fairly clear-cut winner, and it wasn't the one the judges gave it to.

                You know you're struggling when you have to claim that other people haven't watched the fight or they don't know how to score.

                Well no one is going around saying Kell Brook is going to dominate 4 divisions. Which many people actually claimed about Paul Williams.

                    i became somewhat of a Sergio fan when his KO of Williams forced you to crawl under a rock for a few months

                      Sergio himself said that was was a close fight, and only get ofended by that 119/110 what was horrendous. Sergio himself never have a problem to recognize Margarito defeat as a legit one, never talked about the wraps. Sergio is a man in a sport of children, respect the true champion.
