    Well i was rooting hard for Bute and thought he might get a very close decision. Did not kept score though, but to me it looked Bute was ahead in quite a few rounds by being aggressive and having some success. Scorecards were a disgrace IMO

    Bute definitely did not win that fight. 117-111 scorecards were a disgrace though. I think 116-112 or 115-113 are more acceptable.

    I wouldnt say clearly.

    Bute CLEARLY won 4 rds.
    DeGale CLEARLY won 5 rds.

    Best case for DeGale is to give him a 115-113 win.

    Not a robbery by any mean, but not a clear win either.

    Go watch the fight it wasnt close, you can't score rounds because the crowd cheers everytime the home fighter throws a punch or goes forward, Degale outlanded Bute in almost every round. Where's your scorecard?

    I counted 7 or even 8 rounds for Bute. Pure robbery a la Al Haymon! I'm rewatching though the fight now.
