    ...going into that final round.

    Lulz.

    That's what the SkySports pundit team mentioned at the end. Needless to say, they were all very surprised.

    No they both had Martinez up 105-101, at least according to HBO.

    That's ok, then. SkySports must have got it wrong.

    Miscommunication, probably.

    Two of the judges had Martinez up by 1 round going into the final round. They scored the final round so in the end he was up 4 rounds. Julie Lederman had him losing.

    McGirt would commit Seppuku in the locker room if that was the case.

    I actually think they should've ruled the knockdown a knockout. So, I have Macklin winning by a devastating glove-punch KO. This is a good night for us all, lads. :grouphug Thanks, HBO.

    Really? I thought I heard him say two of the judges had him leading Martinez by 4 points. A few people in the Brit forum heard the same thing, too.

    But, whatever. We know that wasn't the case.
