    Again a clear robbery.
    McKenna outboxed him beautiful from the backfoot.

    How long before I say **** you to the sport I love so much.

    Poor officials are to blame rather the sport itself, David.

    Let's be honest my fellow boxing fans.

    The fight was dull and unwatchable. It was also close. Draw or decision for either fighter, it was way too close to call a robbery or even a bad decision. So, I am not upset or bashed by the decision in the slightest.

    Ohara Davies has received a gift before in his bout with Miguel Vazquez. Afterwards, he at least had the courage and the balls to state he did'nt think he deserved the decisions and was completely open about it.

    Tyrone McKenna has received 2 gifts that I can recall, against Lewis Benson and against Mohamed Mimoune. Mohamed Mimoune smashed McKenna in the previous fight in this Golden Contract tournament and was robbed blind, only for McKenna to have the audacity to smugly declare he was the rightful winner.

    Taking this aboard, I am actually glad it was Ohara Davies that got the decision tonight but I will not be watching either of these again. So boring!

    In fairness, I've seen a lot of people say the fight was very poor and like you said, unwatchable. Whilst it wasn't an all time classic, I genuinely didn't think it was a bad one to watch. Whilst there was no real drama, neither boxer clinched for an extended period of time and there were some decent exchanges.

    I agree McKenna has had the rub of the green on a few occasions, though I don't particularly think that means it's right that he gets robbed in any future bout. I thought it was close too, but for me Davies didn't do enough in the majority of rounds. The rounds he won for me he let his hands go and won quite handily, but a lot of rounds he would be out of range and let McKenna land his pitter-patter punches with no reply.

    As I said earlier, I scored it 6-4 McKenna and could probably reasonably see a draw, but I didn't see 6 clear rounds that Davies won, albeit that is my opinion and not one that matters in this particular instance.

    While Davies boxed slow and terribly, do you really think McKenna boxed "beautifully"? It was a bad fight and both of them looked bad

    Loved his footwork and boxing from the outside. I prefer to watch fighters like him over Beterbiev for example. I know a lot of boxing fans disagree with this, but this is to each his own.

    Michel vs Bolotņiks probably will be watchable fight. Both will attempt to finish in distance.
