Crawford vs. Benavidez scorecards going into the 12th round

[FrankieClutch]

2-3 rounds for Benavidez was fair. No way did Crawford win EVERY round to that point, but he was soundly ahead

I was looking for that last night was curious how they had it. Thanks for posting

I didn't score it. I definitely felt there were some rds early one could have given to Jose. I thought they were close so I can't fault that guy for having it 11-0 Bud either. Seem like fair scores across the board (11-0, 9-2, 8-3).

Why is that so crazy? As I recall it the rds Jose did well in were usually still close rds. Close rds can go either way. I don't think its crazy if one gave all the close rds to Bud. I definitely didn't see a rd where I was like "Jose DEFINITELY won that one".

Not surprising I mean it was in Omaha, Nebraska. A neutral judge in any other state would have had Benavidez winning 3-4 rounds going into the 12th.

anyone notice Andre Ward's wack ass scorecard? he had round 3 a 10 - 8 round without a knockdown...?
no reason at all to score that 10 - 8 for Crawford.

Maybe 2 rounds to Benavidez and that would be generous. Thought Crawford was very dominant

I gave Benavidez rounds 4 and 5. Rounds 3 and 6 were close but I still gave them to Bud.

That's fair. I remember an early round (can't think of which.. maybe 2 or 3) in which Benavidez landed really crisp right hands and caught Bud coming in. I thought he clearly won that one. The others on my card were very close though
