    I was scoring on memory earlier, jumping back and forth on my phone, and ended up incorrectly tallying of my score. I gave Bivol 1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 9, 10 and Beterbiev 4, 5, 7, 11, 12. With the 4th, 7th and 10th being genuine toss-ups which could go either way. So... my final score was 115-113 Bivol.

    115-113 Bivol, which I am correctly tallied up is 114-114 earlier.

    I have the same rounds as close as well, but I have 1,2,3,4,8,9,12 bivol
    And 5,6,7,10,11 for Beterbiev.
    It’s close enough that I can see people giving it to Beterbiev they are clearly wrong but I can’t understand anyone not being impressed with a historic performance from Bivol, I take solace knowing that history will be on our side.
    Rematch is happening not because the people want to see it but because Turki wants it

    I was a damn close to denoting the 12th as well, it's deceptively close when it comes to punches actually landed. But the optics were pretty terrible for Bivol.

    3,7,11 were clear Beterbiev rounds and it seems like others that could have been scored either way.

    11th yes, 7th was damn near 10/10, the 3rd round, not even close. That was a solid Bivol round.

    Agreed, round 4 was the 1st I scored for Artur - though I stopped scoring and just watched in round 8

    At that point i felt round 7 was a stablising round for Bivol that I had v close to him, with Beterbiev winning 4,5 & 6.

    That would probably get me to draw, with Bivol winning 8&9 and Artur 10,11 & 12 - although the last round was close with some good work from Bivol.

    Bivol - 1,2,3,7,8,9
    Beterbiev - 4,5,6,10,11,12

    But need a rewatch without the tension to concentrate on scoring!

    Still absolutely over the moon right now. Got pretty buzzed up last night. Still feel absolutely amped even while sobering up.

    Right man won. Thank you to the judges for not rewarding the runner. That kind of boxing is for little turds. It's about putting on the thump.

    Unless you had money on him, can I ask why are you hyper-gay for AB?

    99% of people just like both. The 1% are chechnyan or Usbekistani

    I missed the fight live but watching it back this morning, it's the worst quit job I've seen in boxing since Malik Scott vs Wilder.

    Whittaker intentionally does a little flip over the ropes, lands softly, and then rolls around like he's dying. The fight being scored a draw is ridiculous. It's a clear RTD.

    Beterbiev won that fight and he deserved it.
