    I dont see what can be done now to change the decision, there doesnt seem to be anything actually missed by the refferee.

    I didnt see the fight, its been made quite clear by everybody on here it was a load of **** but maybe for the sake offairness they could have a rematch. Or Alexander could see it as done now and could go out of his way to make sure he gets another shot in the next couple of years.

    Cards after 4 rounds. No one has been hard done by in this situation. Alexander was losing. He should have thought about that before he got his head punched in. Boxing has rules.

    If alexander didn't hug so much the butts would have left bradley's chin out in the open. Alexander is the taller man, when brad charges in (as anyone following his career know's he does) alexander should have worked on countering it.

    Instead the ***** bitched out. He wanted no part of bradley.

    Like ricky hatton once said "it's not fukin tiddlywinks"

    Bradley will get the blame because he has a history of head clashes.
    But, both boxers were to blame for the head clashes...maybe even more-so Alexander. And not forgetting, an orthodox v a southpaw...there is always a chance of head clashing.

    So was the fight really that disappointing/one sided?

    I missed it :?

    It was moderately close but very disappointing, Bradley seemed to lose some of the middle rounds whilst Alexander won them on the move but it was poor

    The ref missed the fact that Bradley was responsible for the headbutting. His ruling was wrong, so he missed something. The headbutting is part of Tim's style, and therefore intentional.

    Bradley caused Alexanders cut, but even then that was completely accidental.

    A lot of the other head clashes were caused by Alexander jumping in, either trying to hold, or fire shots off trying to catch Bradley unawares.

    That along with the stance clash is why there were head clashes, not just Bradley.

    Given that most people posting seem to disagree with you, that would have to be at best termed as your personal opinion rather than a 'fact'. What's the point of having a referee if his opinion (which he is the one paid to implement) is going to be routinely overturned because someone else disagrees?

    You could probably find an incident in most boxing matches that someone somewhere thinks is a deliberate foul. Are you going to make them all no contests?
     
  12. \:patsch their not accidental headbutts this is his 5th fight cutting oppponents with headbutts

    Cherry, Holt, Campbell, Peterson, Abregu and now Alexander. It's even worse as it's 6!

    Agreed. Almost all the clinches were initiated by Alexander in his fight. You've got a soutpaw vs an orthodox fighter. Clashes are to be expected.
