    Man, I'm so sick of these bull**** decisions.

    Hopefully, this will end the Alexander hype. Dude should be fighting on ESPN.

    I really wish the fight was 12 rounds. Hopefully I'll get to see this fight either in the morning or a 2 something(im in the East of the US) but props to Devon for taking this fight and hanging in there. Thanks as usual for the RBR thread IB. I feel bad for Matthysse though I didn't see the fight as he got another bad end in a fight that many felt he won(NO doubt he won the fight against Judah). I'll watch the fight b4 I call it a robbery.

    No wonder boxing is a niche sport

    Not only did LM have the better punch stats, his punches were far more devestating

    This was a real close fight dont see the 96-93 for either fighter, but I did have Alexander winning 95-94. I just hate when people scream robbery when its a real close fight.

    I feel so so bad for Matty. That's twice now he's had a fight taken away from him in the US. Even the Don King commentators are calling the result as ridiculous.

    Devon "Mr. Robbery" Alexander. He has lost his last 3 fights but has only 1 loss somehow.

    I can see 95-94, even 96-93 for Matthysse. But, who had Alexander 93-93? That's winning 7 rounds and deducting a knockdown.

    Don King strikes again.

    Poor Matthysse, robbed twice now. He beat both Judan and Alexander imo. 95-94 Alexander is acceptable, I disagree but I'm not pissed about that card, but 96-93? What the hell?

    Devon is a ****ing joke though, he needs to get a real trainer.
