My Score: 96-94 Pedroza (ATOS)

Official Scores: (N/A)
Winner: By 11th round Technical Knockout to retain the Featherweight Championship of the World, Eusebio Pedroza.

With the camera angle they shot the fight at combined with the quality of the film uploaded makes this a somewhat difficult fight to score for most of the fight. Still a good exciting fight, with a surprising and scary ending. The ref should have stopped this fight in the 10th imo as Aba was getting beat up badly, but he rules Aba hitting his head on the side of the ring and not being able to continue a TKO. It was a push that sent Aba out of the ring, not a punch but I don't think Pedroza did it with the intention of that happening. Scary situation, but Aba who looked seriously injured after the incident was back in the ring winning within 4 months.

Victor Galindez vs Marvin Johnson (November 30, 1979) (15 Rounds for the WBA Light-Heavyweight Title)

Round 11: KO

My Score: 98-92 Johnson

Official Scores: (N/A)
Winner: By 11th round Knockout to win the Light-Heavyweight Championship of the World, Marvin Johnson.

Johnson wins a Light-Heavyweight Title a second time, this time the lineal I believe. Yet again he would bite off more than he could chew in his first defense and get himself stopped by Eddie Mustafa Muhammad. It would be almost 6 years later before he would win his 3rd LHW title, and that time he would make at least one successful defense.

Up Next: Yaqui Lopez vs James Scott my final fight of 1979 & the 1970's. 1980's here I come

 

Fair. I disagree, but fair. I had it 114-112 John. I had JMM vs Norwood 114-112 JMM, I had Barrera vs JMM 114-113 Barrera, and finally I had Bradley vs JMM 116-112 Bradley. Just 4 of the many controversial fights of JMM, he always made it close, and of those four I have Marquez with a record of 1-3.

 

Yaqui Lopez vs John Scott (December 1, 1979) (10 Rounds Light-Heavyweights)

Round 1: 10-9 Lopez
Round 2: 10-9 Lopez
Round 3: 10-9 Scott
Round 4: 10-9 Scott
Round 5: 10-9 Scott
Round 6: 10-9 Lopez
Round 7: 10-9 Scott
Round 8: 10-9 Scott
Round 9: 10-9 Scott
Round 10: 10-9 Scott

My Score: 97-93 Scott

Official Scores: (8-2 Scott) (7-3 Scott) (6-3-1 Scott)
Winner: By Unanimous Decision John Scott.

Ah...There's nothing like listening to Marv Albert and Kenny Norton verbally suck off James Scott for ten rounds. Yes he's a good fighter, yes he beat Lopez and was in complete command almost the whole fight, but my gosh he's just another contender. Seriously Scott's tough and has a hell of a gas tank, that's it. He's not some devastating Ko puncher, he's not some supremely skillful stylist. He's a grunt with a great engine, that's it.

I just looked up the ten point must system rules. You were doing that right and I got it wrong. In the cases where a fighter wins a round but gets deducted a point for a foul, you're supposed to score it 9-9 or 9-8. That would change things. Round 10 I'd switched to a John round because of the point deduction, basically giving him an extra point. My new tally comes to 114-111 for Chris John, although round five could have gone to Marquez in which case I can see 113-112 for John too. Those three points deducted for fouls really changed things, so I can see people being justified if they wanted to call robbery or home cooking. I just don't see it that way.

In your write up, you complain multiple times about the biased commentary. I didn't know you spoke Indonesian?

Round 5: 10-9 Foreman

Round 10: 10-9 Briggs
Round 11: 10-9 Foreman
Round 12: 10-9 Foreman

Official Scores: (117-113 Briggs) (116-112 Briggs) (114-114 Draw)
Winner: By Majority Decision to win the Lineal Heavyweight Championship of the World, Shannon Briggs.

Don't know how you can give Briggs more than 4 rounds, it's easy to spot at least 7 for Foreman. Which is why it makes no sense that the judges scored this for Briggs. Foreman received gifts against Schulz and Stewart, maybe that's why the judges decided to steal the Heavyweight Championship of the World from him.

Probably the best Stalker has ever looked, though his opponent seemed like a mobile punching bag.

I don't think Jozsef got the memo that this was a boxing match, and not a game of tag.

Winner: By Unanimous Decision to retain the WBO/WBA/IBF Light-Heavyweight Championships, Sergey Kovalev.

Much like everyone else who fights Chilemba, Kovalev did not have a easy time with him. Chilemba is a spoiler, he makes everybody look bad. It's impossible to judge how good or bad a fighter really is if you base it off a fight against Isaac Chilemba.

A aside, Russia just might have the goat national anthem, and that man singing it for this fight did it just about as good as I've ever heard it.
