    I had Briggs winning by 1 or 2 Points, but the videoquality was bad, so i could be wrong.

      Briggs was NOT robbed

      In Australia, we had a commentator who was openly Brigg's close friend and he had the fight slightly for Adamek

      Close fight but right decision both cases

        that means jack ****..........thats a typical close of people trying not to be bias and end up being the bias the other way!!...

        it's happened to me many times where i try and "not favour" my fighter, and i end up scoring the fight incorrectly and the wrong way!!..


        that is very very common with judges......how did the aussie judge give the fight to urango!!!

          i scored the fight 113 even. but im a big briggs fan and i think i was being biased against him. he was the aggressor and landed the cleaner shots. i dont know if adamek did enough. yeah he led a crazy life. ****d at 8 or something, won a nation wide tough man comp at 16! world kick boxing champion at 19, and spent half a decade as a complete drug addict.

            'briggs is a good fighter and a good guy, but hes got a big mouth and an even bigger ego problem. he lost the first fight fair and square. i had the first fight 117-111, the closest it couldve been was 114-114.'

            explain how it could have ever been 117 111

                    briggs definately got robbed, he fought so much betta and landed much harder and better punches and also knocked his opponent down, the only reason why briggs lost is because of the polish fans cheering loud, they changed made the judges and referee point the decision away from briggs

                      I scored last night's fight 114-112 for Briggs. I watched it from the floor at the Allstate Arena. I'm interested to see if when I see the replay on HBO2 here in a half hour or so, that I will see it the same way.
                      I didnt see the first fight but as far as this one...Adamak lost 2 points off the bat for being dropped by that hook and then the point deduction which I thought was a little quick...but fair...if Adamak was to have gotten another warning...I probably wouldnt have argued that either..its the refs call and its part of the game...and you have to admit, when it comes to the number of power punches landed...I guess thats opinionated also...what I saw was a Champion throwing punches and Briggs catching so many of them with his gloves...I dont score a punch unless it hits body or face...glove punches dont count...so if you remove all the sissy punches that landed on Briggs gloves and take a look at the number of solid right hands that landed on Adamak, and if you watch close, Briggs really did box him well, set him up alot, I had to give this to Briggs by at least 1 round. Lets not mention that when you come to fight the Champion, you had better bring it...especially in the Champs hometown...and I again think that Briggs did it...Briggs did not get robbed but I think the judges counted to many of those shots that didnt land...Adamak realized he had better throw lots of punches regardless if they land solidly...Briggs 114-112 also!
