    I had Martinez winning 7-5, though I won't argue with 7-5 for Paul or a draw. 119-110 is some bull****.

    Yup. That. Martinez won this fight. How the hell are some of those Williams slaps counting as "power punches"? Martinez landed huge shots. I thought he was gonna lose when Williams started taking over in the middle but Martinez didn't fade as I thought because of Williams relentlessness.

    7-5 Martinez, I also felt the same as Lederman in that Martinez won the championship rounds and thus edged the fight however it was close and a draw would have been fair.

    119-110....that judge needs to be criminally prosecuted.

    Same as you. 7-5 Martinez, could see someone scoring it 7-5 Williams but 11-1 Williams?! **** no!

    Martinez. Williams had high activity as expected, but nothing behind those punches.

    7-5 Martinez...even late, he was landing the head snapping punches and landing clean more often.

    6-5-1 Williams, with the first round even. I have no problem with a close decision either way. In fact, despite my scorecard, it felt like Martinez was the better man, but hey, that's what round-by-round scoring is about. Everyone can see 119-110 is ridiculous.

    I had it 115-113 for Paul Williams. A fantastic fight, and I hope the poor judging won't overshadow the showcase these two fighters put on.

    Agreed. I felt he won the final two rounds on clean punching. Paul was busier, but missed a lot..a whole lot.

    That could have been a win for either fighter by a point, or a draw. That's it. Period.
