Comments Thread For: Mario Barrios Drops Akhmedov Twice, Wins Very Tough Decision

[Mateuz asato]

In the 10 point must system, I believe a round in which a guy is knocked down but you felt he won would be scored 10-9, instead of 10-8. Potentially it could be 10-10 as well

9-9 would typically only occur if the fight who won a round is deducted a point.

It think not....I feel it would be scored a 9-8

Disgusting decision

My question to the boxing world is when are we gonna make the judges accountable by questioning them at the end of the fight. The Russian clearly won from 5-11 and even the 12 so the knock down would’ve made it 9-9. Wow, just wow

Congratulations MARIO "AZTECA" BARRIOS on your victory , way to go Champ!

[Cadet Bonespurs]

The wrong man won.

Really close fight. Can’t argue with barrios winning. Those two kds were huge

[sicko]

I called this fight but TOUGH for young Barrios he showed BALLS just making it to the scorecards to be honest. I thought it should've been a DRAW after he scored that Knockdown

The Scorecards was insulting and very disrespectful to Akhmedov and INSULTING to REAL boxing fans

How in the F#CK was this a UD but Spence Jr vs Porter was a Split Decisions? WHAT?

[R_Walken]

Barrios got a bit of a gift but it wasn’t really a Robbery , he won the first 4 rounds W/ a KD and got a KD in the 12th

He just got beat down from 5-11

A Draw would have been fair but he’s the A-side fighter you knew he was going to get a extra round or 2 , That’s boxing for you

But damn Ahkmedov style is crazy ,

[STREET CLEANER]

Barrios was exposed. That fight was a draw.

I thought Barrios was better but he proved that he is not.

[Dean_Razorback]

controversy aside (big robbery) wonder how this fight will affect barrios. he really got battered last night, his face was all swollen. looked like one of those fights that might change your career.

Plain and simple - Barrios got the living sht kicked out of him and lost the fight. There were at least 2 rounds that should have been 10-8 for Akhmedov when he was beating Barrios from pillar to post. And then to make things worst, they give Barrios a 10-8 round for a flash knockdown when it should have been a 10-9 round because Barrios was losing that round. And then throw in that one brain dead judge and it is clear Akhmed was robbed of a dominant win.
