Smith vs Abraham RBR.

[Cuban Linx]

I'm not even surprised anymore. The amount of gift decisions Abraham gets is astounding. I thought the was getting out-boxed by Sjekloca, next thing you know the fight is over Abraham wins by like 8 rounds on the scorecards. I thought the 3rd fight with Stieglitz was also a gift decision.

You have to stop this guy to beat him like Robert Stieglitz did. Otherwise he's going to keep getting his decisions go his way.

Smith won the fight imo.

Abraham's just not active enough to win wide on cards, never has been.

AA absorbed a lot of big punches too, mostly not to the head but to the body. Canelo would get points for them, not Smith it seems.

It's w/e, I didn't have Smith winning but Kalle Sauerland is going to face a lot of criticism from British fans in a market he is trying to break into.

Didn't say AA should've won wide but I seriously fail to see how Smith "won". He did better than expected so that equates to a victory for some people. Smith took punishment in some of his best rounds even. He didn't win the fight, or quite get a draw.

Fat Dan sums it up:

Disgusting. No issue if you give Abraham fight by rd, even 2. By 11?????? ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME? Unreal. Shame. #boxing #AbrahamSmith

Dan doesn't actually do any sport, but I get what he means.

professional eating is a sport too.

You can't score a fight for 5hit son!

Paul won that by two rounds but I wouldn't have been bothered if it was just by one round. He won that fight.

Did Smith only win between 1 to 3 rounds in this fight is the question.

The scoring was way too wide for that kind of fight which clearly shows something is wrong.

Its not a question of who won it's a question of was one boxer in that fight ever even going to get close to winning regardless of what kind of a performance he puts on.

I can feel what Dan Rafael is saying,it really does turn people away from the sport.

Boxing lost a little bit more of credibility tonight...shameful

Abraham clearly won the 3rd fight with Stieglitz. Don't know what you saw there...

Not even going to bother arguing with a Brit over a Brit. Abraham bounced him around like a 2nd class citizen.

Drop the "Brit" crap, yeah?

What was your score?

[Welsh Jon]

I reckon Smith edged it.

Will have to watch it again because I may have gotten carried away with the emotion of the bout.

Smith will get another change if/when Groves and/or DeGale get their hands on a belt.

Lol, How on Earth can anyone thinks that Smith won? Seriously don't understand. Someone please explain me. For me it was crystal clear. Abraham punches hurt Smith not just once on the other hand Smit's offense was weak and he didn't outwork Abraham that much that he could take away rounds only because of that.

Do you have Malignaggi losing every bout he's been in?
