    ESPN.com has Taylor winning it

    Not that any of you care, but ESPN is usually on the money when it comes to scoring. They got both Hopkins-Taylor fights right just as a reminder.

    ESPN had almost the exact same round by round I did for this fight. Except I gave the 3rd round to Taylor, what seemed like an obvious round for him. I'll have to watch that round again.

    I thought there would be all this outrage in the forums as to why Taylor didn't get the decision. Instead, oddly enough, I see a lot of Wright outrage. What's going on? Taylor clearly landed the more damaging punches. Look at Winky's face, 12th round and unwillingness to rematch the champion for his belt! Wright's pitty pats, although he was able to land them pretty often in a few of the rounds, don't compare to Taylor's blows. I was actually impressed with Wright's chin and ability to come back after getting hurt, but that's about it.

        Wow.

        Maybe now we can all forget the fight we just saw, and care about who ESPN thinks won the fight.

          It was clearly caused by a headbutt.
          And Taylor pressed the action, not Winky.

              WTF? no that's not correct.

              Taylor was backing up, and layed on the ropes at several times in the fight.

              To say Taylor pressed the action throughout the fight is laughable.

                I thought Taylor won round 3 as well.

                    He threw alot more punches. He controlled the pace of the fight.
