    No, no robbery of course. It was really, really close.
    It was just the home advantage that did it for him

    :!:

    I had it for Jamoye too, but by an airtight 114-113...so those scores aren't too wide a swing from that (except the 115-113 one for McDonnell - which means that judge only gave Jamoye four rounds :-().

    Yes, he probably got the benefit of the doubt in a lot of the close rounds as the hometown fighter...but dude, you honestly had no business having Jamoye "edge" the 8th. I know you were rooting for him, but - he barely landed anything and ate right hands for three minutes straight. You can't award a round for simply standing up to punches well. :yep

    He'd get smoked, so much talent at 118

    He should fight Tomoki Kameda. He too had a close close fight with Jamoye that initially ended a draw, but was later changed for a SD win for Kameda. The winner of that one could go on to fight on a world level.

    Honestly, yeah.

    Montiel, Donaire and Darchinyan knock him out cold.

    Perez, Mares, and (Koki) Kameda could do the same and even if they don't he's certainly getting outfought and bruised up.

    The likes of Moreno and Cermeno probably outpoint him.

    Deep.

    Jamoye talked to Frank Maloney after the fight in the ring,he should do everything he can to have an international promotor and maybe even move to Britain.
    He is not a puncher and will lose every close fight as the visitor.

    Agree...The Kameda - Jamoye fight was a good fight! And it will be a great test again for both fighters...

    Really really good fight, think I had McDonnell about 3 points up (115-112)

    I thought he dominanted the second half of the fight, theirs a few rounds that you could argue about (9-9 in the 11th or a 10-8, a 10-9 either way or a 10-10 in the final round) to make it closer though.

    Well now that I've reverted back to being American, yeah, I got carried away. I'm great at scoring fights when I have no rooting interest, but no better than half the official judges in most fights when I do have a rooting interest.
