Martinez vs Williams II: Who won the first round?

i agree 100 percent, if you listen to max paul was fighting a perfect fightatsch

 

that was clearly a Martinez round. I can't understand how anyone could see it as a round for Williams.

 

I gave Martinez the edge in the 1st round.

Regardless, winning up to the point of which he got knocked the **** out is completely irrelevant.

It's not like he was dominating for 9 or 10 rounds before getting starched by one punch. If he was winning, he won 1 close round.

Which bares similarities to Hatton's 'I was winning that second round by a mile [before Pacquiao turned me into a depressed drug addict]'.

 

Good posts, people. Thanks.

 

Williams probably did enough to win the first round (though Martinez did land the best punch of the round) and was winning the second. No one will admit it; that is to be expected. Lots of boxing fans are like that...

Hell, six months from now it will be remembered that Paul didn't land a single shot and Martinez tagged him at will... That is how boxing fans operate.

That is very true.

 

WTFC, the fight just lasted 4.5 minutes, he was doing good for 3 minutes, so what?

 

I thought Williams won because of activity, but Martinez landed better punches. sounds sort of ridiculous I know.

 

Martinez was landing clear punches he won the first round.

 

I scored the first for Williams but can't argue with anyone that gave it to Martinez, it was 50/50 and Martinez' punches clearly stunned Paul.

 

That's why I scored it for him too.
