Can't wait to see Dzinziruk again!

I disagree. I had Dzin winning two rounds but one may have been a push depending on perspective.

 

Dzinziruk had one good round when he tagged Martinez a few times with jabs and the odd power shot. Martinez reacted by saying something along the lines of, "Let's have some more of that soft stuff, please" immediately before completely shutting his down with a left cross.

 

That's your opinion. I had him winning rounds 6-7, and that statement is scarcely out of bounds with any well versed boxing fan. Perhaps you disagree. That is your prerogative.

But quit riding Martinez's jock to the point where no one can offer a reasonable dissenting opinion.

 

I could conceivably have given him another round if I was reaching for it, no doubt as you were, but the overriding point remains the same. This scarcely resembled a competitive fight. It was a dominating performance, and I'm rather amused by how many fans on this website are exaggerating the success Dzinziruk enjoyed in rounds 6 and 7. It was fluff. Martinez may have gotten complacent, Dzinziruk probably knew he had to go for broke, but it was a destruction. Whether you give him one round or two, do you honestly see it any other way than how I just described it?

 

Kellerman must have been "searching for it" as well, because I believe I recall him intimating that Dzin could have earned the nod in round 6 as well.

 

Kellerman is hardly gospel when it comes to these things.

 

But you are?

Indeed, I only attempting to demonstrate that giving the nod to Dzin in Rd 6 was hardly the outlandish folly you seem to think it is.

 

Absolutely not. I had conceded early on that I could have conceivably given him round 6 if I was rooting for him, feeling sorry for him, or hoping for a much more competitive and entertaining fight than we were being treated to at the time. That often happens in Boxing, no? Especially with commentators, they are so enthused by the idea that the underdog could stage a comeback that they highlight all of their work in certain rounds. Countless times I have witnessed this. Old fights and new.

 

That what he said when he was stunned on the 1:44 of rd 5 or when he done little chicken dance on 1:34 of round 7.

 

Wow. :-((

 

Yeah, it looked like Dzin turned a corner and Martinez looked a bit troubled. But Martinez had that extra gear and once he exploded and hurt Dzin, he took control again. For little moment it did appear that Dzin was going to make a late run but Martinez thwarted that or nipped it in the bud as a famous deputy once said.
