    FOTY imo, I had it 114-113 Commey but if don't include the KD which isn't definitive, 114-114.

    Absolutely no robbery, there was nothing in it

      Like I said in the other thread, too many flaws in Robert's game, it was a razor close fight that could've gone either way, and no Robert wasn't knocked down in the 8th, no point should've been taken away.

      Robert kept getting hit with that wide overhand right all night and couldn't adjust, he can't use his reach to his advantage and nullifies his own adbantages by staying in the pocket way longer than he should, plus his inexperience in 12 round fights almost cost him the fight, he lost 9 10 11 imo and almost had Commey out of there in the 12th but he just kept falling in and neutralized his reach and gave Commey a chance to hold him which stopped him from getting the job done.

      Cong**** to Robert anyways, hopefully there's a rematch and hopefully they work on all these flaws man, if he keeps fighting like this he won't last long at the top, power alone is never enough.

          I'm not from Ghana and not from the US, Ron McNair willingly gave Commey only three rounds. THREE! Don't tell me that's not a robbery.

          Easter couldn't even land his jabs.

            Commey good gameplan moving forward attacking throwing big right hands.Easter moving backwards sticking and moving the last round he could have stopped Commey if he kept his distance not smother his punches.Great fight I would like to see a rematch

                True. Now name the punch Commey got hit with all night.

                    Easter got the two hometown points. I won't say Robbery, the only clear round for Easter was the 12th, but the only clear round for Commey wasn't so clear.
