I happened to watch Morales-Barrera I yesterday, was the KO legit to you? A lot of people claim that Barrera was robbed, to me the fight could have gone either way. To me, Barrera "stole" some of the rounds in the last 15-30 seconds with a "barrage" of punches (a lot of them landed clean, I must admit).
I thought Barrera won clearly in fight I (7-5) but the KD wasn't legit. I think Morales was robbed of a KD in fight II and the decision was a clear 7-5 in that fight. Fight III was the clearest but also perhaps just 7-5 Barrera (maybe 8-4). It seemed in every fight when Barrera stepped up his output and got busy he'd get the better of most the exchanges.

Ignorant to say, "fighters got away with". Fighters have nothing to do with the decisions made by judges and referees. The NSB collective needs to stop thinking like children.
As much as I think Horn is trash, I don't blame HIM for the judges being ****** AF and getting that one wrong.
The Associated Press had Mayweather winning and USA Today had it a draw. It was not an "obvious robbery." It was a very close fight that could have gone either way. When you start labeling close fights that could have gone either way as "obvious robberies," then it's hard to take you seriously.
Lara-Williams.... That wasn’t even a close fight. I don’t mind close fights that are/were scored either way, but pure robbery like this one is just stomach turning.
