    McDonnell-Kameda was a a good fight, I had it 114-113 Kameda but the scorecards that had it the otherway were just as reasonable. McDonnell showed that he may not be spectacular but he is a talented fighter.

    Had Burns winning 114-112. Laurence Cole and the judges were about as incompetent as it gets. The thing about Cole is that his incompetence is consistent and yet he continues to referee fights, including big fights. Figueroa showed little to no guile whatsoever, it was Burns who displayed the greater skill.

      Didn't watch the Burns fight, but people tell me he put up a good fight.

      Was he robbed?

        Yeah, the judges filled out their cards before the fight.

          Hmm.. There were noises coming out that Burns did look great in the gym. So maybe he's born again after all. Will have to watch the fight.

            absolute joke figueroa lost clearly, burns landed the cleaner punches, all fig did was sit on burns chest and take punishment most of the fight. he was outboxed and outbrawled by ricky.

              Did you expect that by accident the judges would have had given the decision to Burns?
              In Texas? On a Haymon card?

                Figueroa wouldn't even beat Broner. Sad truth for him.

                Broner would seriously **** up Figueroa something bad. It would be an EASY fight for Broner.

                  Recorded the fight yesterday and just got a chance to watch it...wow what horrible refereeing. He must have grabbed Burns' arm out of the clinch like 20 times when he shouldn't have. His point deduction ended up not even mattering though because the judges clearly weren't watching the fight. I though Burns won but they didn't even have it close, wtf?
