    Bob Sheridan had Donaire winning by 1 point, it's the most biased commentary I've heard in a long time. :rofl

    He said the whole fight that it was close and his card should not be taken as gospel :patsch That's hardly biased. It's not like he was trying to give every round to Donaire :patsch

    How the hell he had Donaire winning by 1 point when the only round he won in the fight was the 10th?

    Well can't be any worse than the fans who only gave Donaire the 10th round.

    I thought Donaire won only round 10. I scored it live as 118-110.

    I thought it was biased at the start also when he kept pointing out when Rigo only landed on the gloves. I think he probably realised though that 4 out of the first 5 rounds to Donaire was madness in fairness

    they all agreed with Lettermen who basically only gave Donaire the 10th with a 10-8 round.

    Bob's cards are always atrocious. He struggles really badly with scorecards. He just doesn't have a ****ing clue. But he fills the air ok and he knows fights. Still, you'd think he would do something about that.

    Bradley wasn't a whole lot better, I think he had it pretty much even, I'm not sure what his final card was but he gave Donaire rounds due to aggression

    To be fair, Bradley stated that he thought Donaire lost.
