Did Charlo land a scoring punch in the first round?

[Boxing-1013]

Serious question. I'm watching this fight now and he definitely didn't land anything in the first 2:30 of the round. I have no idea what people score sometimes lol.

They gave Charlo the first just because.

[buddyr]

I gave rounds 1, 6,8,and 10 to derev. In the 8th, Derev controlled the round and Charlo stunned him at the end of the round, but I don't think thay should have been enough to give him the round. Charlo won the 5th, but Derev started to heat up at the end of the round, but I don't think that was enough to give SD the round. I think rounds 2 and 4 could have gone either way, so if someone gave it to Derev, I wouldn't be upset. So i scored it 8-4 but wouldn't rule out 6-6. 10-2 was ridiculous, but this was no robbery overall. That's my assessment.

My card:

1 - Sergei - landed maybe 5-6 scoring shots to Charlo's maybe 2.
2 - Charlo - close round but 1-1 feels right. Can't have one guy up 2-0
3 - Charlo - clear, was winning it even before the punch that wobbled it Derevy
4 - Sergei - very close, thought he probably nicked it at the end. Certainly the last 30 seconds helped him.

Could see 3-1 Charlo at this point. But 2-2 feels like the right score. Not much separating them at all at this point.

5 - Sergei - 3-2 either way at this point. No real way to have this 4-1 either way.
6 - Sergei - clear. 3-3 Feels like the right score at this time but could see 4-2 to Sergei. Great round btw. Some great inside fighting that Sergei just did some better work in. Charlo showed some good fighting too and some good toughness. Sergei ripped some body shots that would have hurt many guys.

7 - Charlo - I honestly feel like it was Sergei's round again but Charlo ended it well, and you see Derevy's eye swell at the end of the round. 5-2 seems a bit harsh against Charlo but I am not seeing the dominant performance others are seeing. He is getting the fight taken to him by Derevy.

8 - Charlo - great round!! Was honestly Sergei's all the way, until that last exchange, where Charlo hurt him and you have to give him the round. I am not seeing the great jab that others have mentioned though, and Derevy is doing very well in there imo and is doing the better. Honest to God Jack Culcay is doing better vs Sergei than Charlo GGG or Jacobs lol.

Side note - Sergei's face is working against him. Charlo's working for him. Charlo not marked up at all and Sergei showing serious wear around that eye. Makes it seem like he is losing the fight though I feel he is pretty clearly doing the better work routinely, certainly in these middle rounds.

9 - Charlo - clear, great round from him. His best, most consistent round so far. I think Charlo looks emboldened by the cut on Sergei's eye, and Sergei seems conscious of it. As a result Charlo relaxed and picked his spots well, and Sergei looked cautious.

5-4 Charlo just feels like the right score. Anything different just seems off.

10 - Sergei - clear - 5-5

11 - Sergei - pretty clear 6 -5. I am not really understanding the fawning over Charlo's performance at this point. Both guys tiring a bit, especially Charlo.

12 - Sergei - clear - 7-5 Sergei. Could see 6-6. No idea what some of y'all were looking at lol. Wow.

Thanks I just watched and honestly was shocked that basically everyone said Charlo dominated, especially with his jab? Where was that lol.

Idk that wasn't the fight I saw at all. This was a similar version to GGG-Charlo to me but Sergei did a bit better here and Charlo wasn't as active as GGG. He did hurt Sergei in a few rounds though which gave him those. But I have no idea how people said Charlo won 8 rounds. Like where lol

you gave SD 7 rounds and you're complaining over Charlo getting 8? hahaha

How could anyone not give him 1, 10, 11 and 12? 6 was pretty clear as well I believe.

Not trying to call you out if you gave him 8. Was just saying in general I don't see that at all.

I aint got a problem with a draw, but SD did not win 7 rounds. That's crazy. There were close rounds and I think he won 4 clearly, but 7? are you serious? You can't be.

SD controlled the whole round. You can't give a fighter a round that loses 2 minutes and 30 seconds of a round, but stuns his opponent at the end of the round. Unless that opponent was hurt SERIOUSLY, 1 punch doesn't win a round unless a knockdown is involved.
