    Algieri? That was a gift. And I'm an Algieri fan. Manny Pacquiao proved Algieri in no way should have gotten that decision and you know it. A guy gets knocked down, takes a knee for two knockdowns, with a busted up face and eye, yet wins?

    I'll tell you what I saw from Molina. He wasn't using height advantage and Ruslan was tagging him with scary power shots straight to the face all night long and then they both gassed round 9 on. Molina had some hints of greatness when fighting off the ropes. Other than that he wasn't doing anything to Ruslan. Meanwhile, Ruslan show much better boxing skill (still piss poor defense) at a distance than we've seen before.

    Put it this way. If you think Bradley lost against Ruslan, then Molina just lost against Ruslan for the same reason. If you think Molina clearly schooled Ruslan, then there should be no further debate that Bradley schooled Ruslan for the same reason. You can't have it both ways.

    And I just double-checked. Ruslan connected at a higher percentage with his jab and had a higher overall connect percentage, which I what I thought I saw. So the judges basically rewarded Molina's activity, despite him missing more punches in comparison. Ruslan's depressive state at the end doesn't matter - he's mentally wasted.

    It's fine to reward aggression and I understand it's subjective but come on man. You can't pat Molina on the back for his jab when he was less effective with the jab overall than Ruslan.
    i only read the bold, didnt read the rest becuase the bold is so ****** that i figured the rest may be worse.

    algieri lost the first 2 rounds after that outboxed ruslans head off. i dont know why people were so high on ruslan, just like they are GGG. I remember everyone on here saying everyone was ducking ruslan and they and HBO were hyping ruslan up for a pac fight. if they fought and pac won everyone would have rode pacs **** way harder then they already do. i can already imagine it lol.
