I was at MSG this weekend, I know the Afolabi fight wasn't televised so most NSB posters probably aren't clued in, but I thought the Polish fighter took at least seven rounds, possibly eight in their fight. Media reports haven't really been saying outright that it was a robbery, but the absolute closest I could have seen that fight was a draw, Janik outworked and outhustled Afolabi in the first and last third of the fight, Afolabi took a few of the middle rounds but that was about it.
Don't know how common this is for a non-televised fight to just be a pretty blatant robbery, it's probably more common cause there's less fan backlash. Also nobody at MSG really gave a ****, neither fighter was from Brooklyn or Russian/Kazakh, and it was a dull fight, so the crowd mostly shrugged at the decision.
