    So a statement like 'AA won most of the rounds' could just equate to someone thinking AA won 7-5. If you it's reasonable for someone to see the fight as such I don't understand why you'd make that comment.
    "Most of the rounds" suggests a big majority. I guess the guy who made the post should clarify.

      Most is by definition more than half. If you have AA winning 7-5 you have him winning most rounds.

          Like I said, the guy who posted should clarify but the tone of his post didn't suggest he had it close.

            i only thought Smith won about four, maybe five rounds, to be honest Abraham more or less dominated stretches of the fight except for the 8th through 11th. Judges scorecards were too wide, but the right guy won, Smith doesn't need to be made mandatory because the judges were biased towards a deserving winner.

              People have already forgotten about the Shihepo robbery. He deserves a rematch waaay more than Smith.

                Abraham won the fight without a doubt. Nobody would've complained if the refs scored it like 116-112. I don't see the difference. Smith lost it either way. No way in hell he won the fight.

                  Fair play to Eddie for trying to work the angles but Abraham isn't leaving Germany. Not at this point.

                  I scored it 115-113 for Smith. Admittedly I zoned out a couple of rounds whilst eating a toasted sandwich and the Russian commentary only added to my general feeling of indifference.

                  It was a close fight to call, particularity with a dollop of chilli-mayonnaise smudged into your t-shirt. I gave Smith some of the close rounds based on him forcing the issue but I'd have no qualms in them being scored the other way.

                  I think me and Fernando Laguna must have been doing some inadvertent cross-continent synchronised sandwich eating but at the point where my chill-mayo lobbed onto my shirt his squirted into his eye and blinded the poor bastard.

                  Fair play to him for soldiering on and judging the fight purely on sound.

                    I couldn't care less for Abraham or Smith but I had that fight a draw.to win a fight you gotta take more rounds right ?

                    On top of all that Smith never once had Abraham hurt,everything Abe threw appeared to hurt Jr.
