Who won: Terence Crawford or Israil Madrimov

I had it a draw, but I don't have a problem with a 115-113 card in favour of either fighter. My problem with the actual cards is that in the case of any close or uncertain rounds, the benefit of the doubt is automatically given to the A-side (Crawford). I feel for Madrimov to have got the nod, he would have needed to have won convincingly in order to have won a narrow victory on the cards; see also Canelo-Bivol, where Bivol should have won with wide scorecards, yet all three judges saw it 115-113.

 

Wow. There's actually a fair share of people that thought Madrimov won? That's crazy. No surprise CST is 1 of them, dude probably goes to the same place to get his eyes tested as Victor Loughlin.

117-111 on my card, I don't even think the rounds were THAT hard to score. Madrimov was bouncing around and feinting for the 6 rounds straight.....dude never landed **** besides 2-3 jabs to his midriff.

 

Some fans are genuinely ****ing stupid. Don't highlights skip half the rounds?

 

Went to sleep and watched it in the morning so didn't end up scoring this one

Terence Crawford won the fight. There's not even really a question that he won, not sure of why there is so much uproar. The only thing this fight proves is what I've previously said, that this would be Crawford's last division and that it's silly to even think he'd be competitive vs. Canelo

 

Course you do..."seems" being the key word here, you must be some marvel superhero with advanced magical super powers long into the future.

For the majority of us (that actually saw the FULL fight), just an easy Bud win, eaaaaaasy.

 

Madrimov proved to be strong but spent most of the fight posturing and moving his upper body while having low output. He had success is spots, but it wasnt enough

I had bud winning 7-5. He just struggled to land because Madrimov's head is in constant motion

 

Don't be too harsh on me. You should know that I don't have to agree with you about everything that you say or predict or analyze since nobody is perfect. For the sake of our arguements please don't get angry or upset easily when I disagree with you or say something against you. I will try not to be harsh on you next time whenever you say something that I disagree or dislike. Sorry again if I have made you upset and angry.

 

You shouldn’t have to apologize for anything.

mods take their job and scoring too seriously.

 

117-111 is a wild scorecard lol

 

Well.... CST80 is my long time friend here. I know how he is. He always gets angry and upset whenever I criticize him or say something against him. I think that I get used to it.

 

Then Madrimov should've made a bit more of a fight of it then, just feinting and shaking your hands about for 2mins 30 of every round isn't enough to win rounds....at some point you have to throw punches as well, shame his corner couldn't communicate that concept to him earlier. Bud was the busier of the 2 most of the early rounds.

 

Had it 116-112 Crawford.

It was a good fight, but still a pretty clear Crawford win for me. Really don't see what all the fuss is about, surrounding it.
I don't even see any way it could be judged a draw or swinging the other way at all.
