    I gave Garcia rounds 2, 5 (I think), 11 and 12.

    116-112 Thurman.

      7-5 Swift Thurman gave away the final rounds. I will say Thurman did win most of his rounds more convincingly and the rounds I gave Danny were usually close -- I'm not going front maybe thats because I was rooting for DSG...even the CBS crew acknowledge this could be close because Thurman was living up to his alias 'Runtime ' so dont call me a hater.

          10-2, 9-3 if you wanna be generous to Danny. It was competitive, but not close.

            I had it 116-112 Thurman. People will freak out as always, but the way boxing scoring works is f#cking ******ed so this does make sense if you are a reasonable mfer. On my scorecard I easily could have given Garcia the 2nd & my scorecard woulda been 115-113 Thurman making it 1 round away from being a draw, but I thought Thurman did enough to swipe that round in the end.

            The main thing is I felt that those 8 rounds I gave to Thurman were largely won clearly & dominatingly while the 4 rounds I gave Garcia & the 5th round I could have easily given Garcia were close. Problem is unless there is a KD or someone was an inch from death all those rounds are 10-9. Thats f#cking ******ed & a large reason fights that aren't reallllly that close, like this one felt to me & most, end up being so close.

              Scored it 7-5 Thurman. 116-112 sounds right, though. Thought Garcia did some good body work early in some close rounds, and Thurman got too safe in the championship rounds.

              Right man won.

                  I actually thought it was a very good fight. I can see that a lot of people don't agree with me. Was it that it was too technical and people wanted more of a brawl or what?

                    7-5 Thurman. Could easily see up to 9-3 Thurman.

                    He clearly won the fight. Would have liked to see him put an exclamation mark on the performance but can understand why he got in his bike.

                    What surprised me in the fight was that even when they exchanged, Keith for the most part got the better of the swings, I expected Danny would win those before the fight because he punches more compact. But actually it was the fact that Thurman has slightly faster reflexes, faster hands, and better angles that allowed him to get the better of the exchanges.

                    The only rounds Danny won were down to inactivity on Thurman's part. He couldn't do anything with Thurman to be honest, when he did have success, which wasn't very often, Keith would come forward and put him back in his place with some hard shots.

                    Credit to Danny though for not giving up, even though he was outgunned. He has an absolutely iron chin, and a very strong will. He is still a tough out for anyone in the division. I know he has this ongoing rivalry with Terrence Crawford, but if tonight was anything to go by that is the last fight on Earth that he needs. Crawford will box circles around him.

                      I though Garcia fought well and put up a good fight. I thought Thurman was a clear and obvious winner by about 8 rounds to 4 rounds in his favor. The judge who scored the fight 115 to 113 for Garcia is guilty of attempted robbery.
