Alexander Matthysse I scored that fight 95-94 for Matthysse close fight not a robbery a draw would have been good.

No you won't. Devon Alexander is looking for a big pay day because he knows his boxing career is near its end. He's not that good.

Neither Matthyse or especially the kotelnik fight were close. If you think that, you obviously didnt watch them. I had a hard time even giving grunter two rounds against Kotelnik.

That's a complete joke and stinks of bias.

I've seen both fights about 10 times. I can see arguments for anyone winning them, but to call them gifts or robberies is a joke.

Dude he's 25 and a champion. He isn't close to being done, this just stinks of ignorance and hate.

If he punched Floyd in the mouth at the weigh in i still wouldnt be interested.

Gifts against Kotelnik and Matthysse, but somehow you beat Mayweather? What a garbage fight.

This.

I was fine with the scores, look it was a close fight and there was only one 10 - 8 so it wasn't impossible to win that fight.

I think arguments for either guy winning either fight can be made, but then they wouldn't be a robberies. That's all I am saying.

I thought Devon won both fights, you thought he lost. They were both close fights and both of us could make arguments for either guy winning. Thus not a robbery.

Matthysse's fight against Judah was closer than his fight against Alexander. I couldn't believe when they just handed that victory to Devon after Lucas consistently outmuscled and outboxed him, and even got the knockdown. And the decision against Kotelnyk was even worse.

This is a horrible Mayweather opponent. Worst in a very, very long time.

Thanks. That's all I ask for in this case. Look I concede that Devon could have lost those fights, but they were close so they weren't really robberies. That word gets thrown around way too much on here.

I agree others probably deserve it more than Devon and will probably make more exciting fights.

However when it comes to Guerrero I think Devon should get the upper hand. He has the better resume, he's the better known fighter, and honestly I think he is just better than Robert. Now I will concede that Guerrero would make the better fight, and probably make it more exciting. But I think Floyd picks him apart and eventually knocks him out. Devon could make it ugly, awkward, and difficult for Mayweather.

Good post...

There's no way to score Matthysse-Alexander a draw. The knockdown prevents that. There's no way Alexander won more than 5 rounds, which means there's no way he could get the win, either. When there's no way a guy can win a fight, it doesn't matter how close it was it was a robbery.

I had Alexander Matt's 115-113 Matt's..I had Alexander Kotelnik 116-111 Kotelnik..I thought the Kotelnik fight was the worse decision..But for some odd reason,I did not think Robbery is the correct word..But I would say un favorable judging..Gave both fights to Alexander...

I was told,Peterson could not draw/win a fight with Ortiz..I've also disproved that notion..It's not out of this world that someone could see a certain rd for Alexander instead of Matt's..Which is why the fight was close and Alexander had a real chance of winning that fight with Matt's..I did not score the fight for Alexander,but I did not feel Matt's won in as such clear fact fashion that so many try to portray...
