    Yes, there was.

    And he lost the fight. It was close but he lost. No controversy.

      It was actually fully warranted. Murray was diving into Abraham's waist and grabbing him the whole fight. He was warned about it repeatedly too

        Even after the deduction, Murray should still have won. It was an awful decision.
        You scored it to Murray? Wow.

        I had Abraham by a few rounds.

          He scored it to Murray before he even watched the fight.

          The guy is a complete joke.

            I had him losing to Martinez and Abraham and drawing with Sturm so dont see any controversy.

            He probably could have got an extra kd vs Martinez which might have helped but **** happens. The point deduction vs Abraham was valid

            I respect the hell out of Murray for going to Germany x2,Monte Carlo and Argentina for all his biggest fights, but his style is not easy to score. Not much power, scrappy, lots of holding and spoiling etc. There have been times where he looks on top and you want him to push the action but he very rarely comes out of his comfort zone.

              im sorry but he lost that fight, at times he was very lazy, cant see him becoming champion of the world at all now.

                It wasnt for holding it was for ' complaining '



                at the very least it was a draw.

                how people can say abraham won, after doing absolutely nothing for the first 2 minutes of every single round, i dont know..

                  Location didn't matter, he lost the fight.

                  If you don't want to lose world title fights, do enough to win. When you've got a guy like Abraham pushed back and against the ropes, do work, don't just back off and let him go forward. It was really that simple, less backing off and he would have won.

                    How do you know that? Did you hear or see the ref warning Murray?

                      Yes.

                      I watched the fight.
