    I also gave Valuev two rounds.

    I tend to feel bad for the judges having to pay close attention to awful fights. Two rounds in, I would have scored it a draw, drawn a rude picture on the card, and left.

    i think i had valuev by a round it was hard to give haye rounds cause he was just running at times - i wonder if hadnt broken his hand what would have happend.
    could call the last round a 10-8 cause someone landed a decent punch???
    Holyfield beat Valuev and should have been given the win

    You should probably just stop watching boxing now. You're going to be very disappointed when you misinterpret how a fight went like that.

    I rewatched it yesterday actually. I scored it for Haye by a couple of rounds, but some of the rounds were so appalling in their lack of action that they were tough. I mean Valuev lands a few jabs to Hayes body and Haye lands a single right to the head.....serious snoozeville.

    What was notable was how out of breath Haye was in between rounds and at the final bell. I mean really panting!!!

    I had Valuev by one round too, i thought Haye controlled the fight, but scoring it round by round I found it hard to give it to Haye. He just didn't throw enough punches.

    Don't get me wrong, that was the smart way to fight against a giant, but how he got a close decision against a German promoted fighter in Germany is waaay more impressive than his performance was.

    Bet if Golden Boy wasn't involved, there's no way in hell he would've got that decision.

    Anyone who could give Valuev anything like 4 rounds can't score a fight. You could argue he was completely shut out. Any time Haye threw punches, he landed - I don't think I've ever seen a higher connect percentage in a world title fight that went the distance. Any time Valuev threw, he missed - Did Haye even take one clean punch?

    All these cards that are reasonably close are strange. Being the aggressor yet not landing a thing is not how to win a fight. Obviously there's absolutely no justification to give the nod to Valuev and that kind of scorecard really does mean, in the immortal words of Roger Mayweather, "you don't know **** about boxing".
