Extra rounds would have gone down very well in this fight Icemax.

Not sure about Kessler having to stop Froch to win though.

The Mancini/Kim bout means that the 15-20 round thing will never happen.

Apologies if this has already been mentioned, but apart from Tillman's scoring (i don't think you could argue with the others), what i find astounding is that 2 Belgians were the judges for a world title fight. To my knowledge (and apologies any Belgians, if i am wrong) Belgium does not have a massively strong boxing scene and so the education for these judges while judging national fights mustn't be that great. To then make the jump to euro (a lesser extent) and then world titles just seems bizarre, and i am sure they wouldn't have built up the top-quality experience prior to euro/world titles. It is the equivalent of a referee from new Zealand refereeing the FIFA World Cup Final - and that would never happen.
