    Was the decision really that bad?
    He won the fight. The scores were heavily in his favour, but he still did enough to win in my book. The right result is all that matters, and in my opinion, the result was the correct one.

      Thanks Timba, too many people use the word ' robbery ' for anything these days. I haven't seen the fight so when I saw all this talk, I was getting concerned. The Ogogo fight is the only one involving a British boxer that was a little su****ious, very fortunate to get through.

        Yea man I know...I've come to accept it at other sports...but this is boxing...

        It's been really bad for the sport...We just had a bunch of bull**** fights in the pros, we watch the Olympics and these guys get shafted too...

        At least pros get paid proper, these guys get nothing....

            Kumar destroyed Stalker in the second round and should have won huge. He won the third too but by a closer score.

            Ukralex you get them?

                Here's Lomachenko fight: http://news.liga.net/video/sport/709...2012_video.htm

                He is turning out to be like Mario Kindeland in terms of dominance and precision punching. Nothing similar in boxing style but his domination over the past 6 or so year is ridiculous.

                  Womens Boxing starts today..anyone going to watch? I won't be watching it much to be honest but i'l watch Natasha Jonas today as she from my neck of the woods.

                  Looking forward to watching John Joe Nevin later aswell..he's been impressive so far.
