    This was a clear victory for matthysse! He out landed alexander, he landed the Much Harder shots and he knocked alexander down! I dont see how this fight could be scored for alexander!

    I agree with everything here except not being able to see how it could be scored for Alexander.

    Don King + St. Louis + judges hate Matthysse as it is =

    :yep

    I actually had Alexander winning 95-94, could have seen a draw as well. I wont call this a robbery like many are. I will disagree though with the 96-93 score.

    Looks like Fat Dan has multiple accounts to make it look like people agree with him.

    You'd be right if every round in every boxing match had a clear winner, but that's not the case. If there are 4 rounds that are clearly for boxer A and 4 rounds that Boxer B clearly won. Than in to nites bout there the remaining 2 rounds and in a championship but 4 rounds that really decide the result. Taking in to acount that there are no hard/fast rules to score a round. It is reasonable that there is going to be some difreance on how one judge as well as one fan or jouranelest scores the close rounds than another might.

    When I first posted I had it LM by one but actually two after going through my card. This, to me, is still far from one of the worst decisions this year.

    Matthysse would have been disqualified for balling his fists and closing his thumbs over them before punching.
