    Oh yeah. It was a pleasure to a part of it. Even though I am still angry that my entries on DeGales wiki page were removed.

    Guys...what happened in Juarez/John? When I fell asleep John seemed fairly comfortable outboxing the flatfooted Juarez. I think the Setanta commentary was a little overzealous in his praise, nevertheless I had him in a nice lead with Juarez cut and everything seemingly going against him. At which point I fell asleep.

    Now I see its a draw...WTF?

    Was there a dramatic turn around? Robbery?

    I had it 7-5 to John but credit Juarez for comming back as strong as he did and he was MUCH better than John in the championship rounds which is why maybe Juarez got the draw.

    No robbery IMO

    I defo thought it was a robbery and Chris John was clearly the winner. Not by a huge margin mind.

    Barney was a disgrace - on the predictions I had him winning, by stoppage as well I think.
