116-112 for Chudinov IMO. I could see 115-113, nothing less though.

close fight, no way its robbery.. I think that the right man won. he deserved to retire as a 5 time champion and as a future HOF.

Chudinov looked like he was sick to be honest. he was slow. and had horrible starts to rounds.

I think if they did a third fight he'd win. Sturm winning is fine by me. Sturm showed up hard tonight. and chudinov looked flat.

I think Chudinov won clearly, Sturm started well but when Chudinov started to move more and boxe, Chudinov figured Sturm out IMO. Good fight though.

Yet another gift for Sturm, who has had many.

Final Stats: Chudinov: 297/1022 (29%) Sturm 184/605 (30%). Sturm was more efficient with power shots landing 41%, but was outlanded 226-143. Not only that, just look at their faces and bodies at the end of the fight. The only thing Sturm was really better at was catching shots with his body and face.

But as the fight was going on, I sensed that they were going to rob Chudinov, particularly with the crowd going crazy on every missed shot by Sturm. I was thinking that Chudinov would need to sit Sturm down in order to win in Germany, and Chudinov is just not that kind of fighter. Another bad decision, not the worse I've seen, but still not good.

It was a mediocre fight...........................

In what world did Sturm win this fight??

[giacomino]

Welcome to Sturmland. He's been involved in more SDs and MDs at home than Ottke. Chudinov wasn't impressive but Sturm did even less

Newsflash.....fights aren't won on compubox type stats. Whatever decision this fight ended-Chudinov could not dominate a spent Sturm.

Sturm didnt win more than 4 rounds. No way. This was a clear cut robbery. Chudinov wasnt good i have to say, but Sturm was terrible.

Sturm spent his last cash to buy out the judges. Same as he did a couple years ago to buy the Super WBA belt to be able to duck GGG.
