    I watched the American commentary and thought it was very biased against Taylor. I had Taylor winning the first 3. Then I gave Teofimo a few Taylor the 6th or 7th then Teo again. I knocked it off in the 9th to watch Oliveira KO Dariush then put it back on for the last two which seemed to be competitive rounds for Teo.

    I just didn't see some domination for Teo like many made out, look at the state of his face, hardly unscathed. I'm not complaining about the decision as I missed 2 or 3 rounds, I also felt Taylor lost convincingly to Catterall by 8-4 with a KD but tonight wasn't that.

    For the record I think Taylor should retire, he's took a major step back since leaving Shane McGuigan look at some of the results he had before, he destroyed O'Hara Davies and beat several world tier fighters in clean and fair fashion. Seemed to me like he's been partying out the ring and lost it a bit.

    Boxing can't even get the scorecards right when the right man wins.

    Struggled to give Taylor even a share of a round after the 2nd. A couple of the championship rounds were very close to being a 10-8 too.

    Couldn't really argue against those scores. If I watched it again, I'm Sure I could find a case for another Taylor round in the early part of the fight. Beyond that, Lopez ran away with it though.

    I disagree. Teo stayed switched on in order to slip and roll away from Taylor's wild swings at the end of most exchanges. Why risk getting clipped? Teo fought the perfect fight.

    But see certain posters will try to hold your feet to the fire if you rescored it another way. Some posters on here are just clowns, and try to play the objectivity card.

    Gave Taylor the first 3 rounds and the 10th. 3rd could've gone either way and 10th was generous.

    At the very least it was a 8-4 fight. Taylor looked almost like a shot fighter

    We might disagree on other items but wow we are almost, always in lockstep with scoring boxing.

    I had the same 116/112

    Taylor took an ass beating last night, don't know where those close scorecards come from.
