    I had it 114-113 for Easter the point deduction being the difference.
    Easter has all the atributes to be an elite guy but he does not use them to his advantage. Going by that performance he would be lunch meat for Garcia.

    How can Loma be ducking someone in a different weight class though lol. And I'm not a Loma supporter right now, can't stand his dickriders.

    30,000 people were at Brook vs Spence?!!!!

    I would be fighting in England every chance I got if people were showing up like that all the time. I would reverse it and become the first American to break big overseas first.

    Remember when Khan got a point deducted in the 12th against Peterson? And All the Goldenboy lads in the crowd went crazy. Oscar was legit raging.

    Shawn Porter and the rest of 147 is full of weirdo's. He sitting around waiting for Thurman for the same money he would get for Spence. He might get more if he fought Crawford after Horn.
    Once again they show their hypocrisy.

    Depending on your judging preferences. Fortuna sat back far too much. Had he been a bit more aggresive he would have won the fight.

    That's true, but he also is a more orthodox fighter. He's not as fast or as awkward as Fortuna. I'm a bit puzzled why Garcia didn't take the fight, I know he said there wasn't enough money, but it's better to get Easter now, while he's still working on some of his deficiencies, then down the line where he will be a tougher fight. I think Garcia would beat him.

    33 is not old in boxing and it's not about age there are so many factors. But highlighting the fact that he's 33 when a lot of fighters are in the heart of their prime at 33 is stupid.
