    Some people actually score for body work it was a very close fight as the score cards attest.

    Stop crying because everyone doesn't see the fight as you do.

    If I were Fiddy, I'd me more embarrassed by that walk-in rap, than by my fighter losing. Lord, that was awful.

    I HATE, hate when they announce the outcome of a fight before they actually read out the scores (ie- 'we have a majority decision, here are the totals')

    I like when they just read out the scores and say "your winner, by SD, Graddovich" rather than making me break out into a cold sweat for a minute praying he doesn't get screwed :lol: :verysad

    I guess atleast he didn't drop from the lights this damn time :!:



    (Willie Nelson had a hell of a showing......(was he on the Rubio undercard when I was up there?))

    Did you see what the ESPN users voted? 11 rounds to 1 for Gradovich. Now that's a little extreme, but the point is, while not EVERYONE saw him winning the fight, the overwhelming majority did.

    Real money

    Not much of a gambler, but nearly put some money on Thompson last week vs
    price and was kicking myself for pussing out

    Knew gradovich was a tough fight for dib, saw he was a fairly big underdog, and pulled the trigger

    The overwhelming majority of people who voted via facebook saw him winning 11 rounds to 1, that is worse than my score card and the judge who had it 114 -112 Dib.

    LOL.

    Like I said it was a close fight, depending on how you decided some of the earlier round 1 -6 the fight is either a draw, like mine, or could be a runaway victory for Gradovich.

    I don't think so. He only hooked up with Loew recently.

    Had Curtis really DROPPED from the lights boxing would have been better off. :D

    Damned, gotta believe his trainer is for real too. Garcia got an eye for talent.

    :thumbsup

    The final bit of confidence I needed to put the money down was your break down of the fight recently. You echoed a lot of my thoughts and hearing it from you helped.

    So, thank you. Seriously.
