    LOl yeah I mean you can leave the side unprotected but then you have to be RIGHT UP against the guy, with no space to throw, you can get away with it. But you can't stand at sort of a midrange with your head wide open angled and inviting to a right hand, you're right it is amateurish.

    For me, it's just like a KD. If one guy wins 2:30 of the round but suffers a KD, I'm scoring the round for the other guy.

    If one guyis landing lots but not having much effect, and he gets rocked a couple of times, I'm not giving him the round.

    I generally agree with your scoring, round 80 % of the time.

    He hobbled when he got up but he shook that off fairly sharpish, didn't he? It was an excuse. Dislocated my ring!

    You'd figure Barker would've learned from Sergio KO'ing him by busting his eardrum.

    Did his hip actually go?? I thought he was just on jelly legs from the punches.

    Im gutted. However... Wen the towel was thrown in barker was throwin his own.... Dont wanna be biased but i think the coming weeks will reveal all. Barker is a very talented fighter. This was a shocker

    Sorry to burst your bubble but Barker isnt in class of even past it Sturm. I have written today prime Sturm beats him easy but honestly didnt see past it Sturm destroying him easy,

    yes! That's the point of the shoulder roll: you put your head sideways, but protected by the shoulder, WHILE MOVING AWAY! Not standing still there for seconds without any defense like Barker was doing

    Thats what i thought. He might regret telling his corner it was his hip as it appeared he may have been getting his legs back again just as they through the towel in.

    Guys like Barke, and Geale are a joke. Golovkin may be the real deal. Martinez is definitely over rated. Sturm, is what he is. When he comes focused to fight, he is a legit middleweight. Guys like Barker, and Geale, wouldn't even be top ten guys back when Hopkins was middleweight champ.
