Boxing is scored on around by round basis not by punch count. Some rounds were lopsided for Matthyse but Ruslan clearly won 4, including the last two. Anywhere from 7-5 to 8-4 Lucas was good. A draw would've been a stretch.

HBOS Hack Job actually made people think that fight was close.

Totally agree with the TS honestly, and Im not even a fan of Matthysse. I don't give Provo more than 4 or 5 rounds, dont think it was a close fight at all. Can't see how Letterman gave Provo round 3 for god sake. Some rounds Provo was only blocking punches with his face and doing something the last 30 seconds and they gave him the round.
I still cant count the number of jabs Provo ate all night. Blocking punches with your face don't make you deserve to win a fight. Also Matthysse was doing a good job at partially blocking punches or rolling with them, while Provo was eating them flush.
