    :lol: I did answer:

    I just said the fight is clearly for Lewis after which you've spent an entire post trying to prove it was a clear Lewis victory :lol:

    :lol: especially if you make them up.

    So if the fight is clearly for lewis on a close scoring card how does that make my claim that holmes clearly won his fight any less?

    "Holmes vs Spinks was a robbery, I had Holmes winning 8-3 with one round even!"

    "But it was a 15 round fight you imbecilic moron!"

    "Err....... Err....... Yeah but 3 rounds I didn't score because they were.... Err... Too even."

    :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Er...yeah, yeah that's right i agreed you.


    Is it not the second one you pretended to score? Do that one.

    I'd love to know which rounds it was that "happened in the middle of the fight" that were "too close to score" that you didn't score "because it wouldn't have made a difference" even though...they were made in the middle of the fight :rofl

    Seriously, this comedy routine is owed you trying to squeeze your those fifteen rounds into your twelve round scorecard :lol:

    I didn't pretend anything I actually DID score it and even without scoring SOME! That's how good I am,knowing that someone winning over 7 rounds wins the fight anyway,the reality is Holmes in all likely hood will win more rounds if I re check that fight..!i wiould have to review those rounds that I put an X on that I didn't NEED to score,siince Holmes WON anyway...this is 5th grade math really. And as promised I will do a round by round just to show that only 3 ppl know how to watch a fight.

    Oh, haha, the humanity. It's not okay to bully a person with a mob but... God that was funny. Well played, McGrain.

    Uncle, being honest is much better than bluffing and insulting to try and impress. Though it would be less funny.

    Don't you feel like calming down, coming clean and telling us honestly why you gave us a 12-round scorecard for a 15-round fight?

    He's contradicted himself again!

    He stopped scoring because Holmes had already won more than 7 thus won the fight. But even if Holmes won the first 8 rounds and Termite ignored the next 3 rounds because Holmes had already won, why did he then feel the need to score the final 4 rounds?

    Agreed, I scored it 8-5-2 for Spinks. Holmes' corner knew that he was behind and Holmes knew that he lost. Barry, Larry Merchant and SRL all had Spinks ahead (Barry was surprised that two of the judges had it so close).

    I watched both bouts live as well as all the pre and post fight ballyhoo. Spinks clearly outboxed an out of shape Holmes to win fight one. Fight 2 I had clearly for Holmes and was shocked when the decision was announced. Holmes manhandled Spinks early to mid fight, Spinks came on late but not enough for the win. Holmes was screwed in fight two.
