    Close and I had Mongolian winning 1st round but Stalker doing enough in the other two to win it. Surprised at the decision!

    Not a massive rip off but I thought Stalker won with a little bit to spare. The home fighter getting a slightly raw deal adds credence to the theory that it's the scoring system thats flawed and the judging crap rather than anything being hookey.

    Tough fight that. I had Mongolian comfortably up after 1, Stalker getting it back in the 2nd but still just behind but then winning the third to take it. Shame for Tom

    it wasnt an out and out robbery, but i thought stalker by about 2 personally. And i was watching online with no commentary. I think he edged the 2nd and edged the third. First was close, mongol probably nicked a point more.

    Do you lads watch 2 boxers or just the home fighter ? Honestly how many times did Stalker have his head snapped back , it was close fight couldnt argue either way !

    I was watching on the RTE stream with no commentary I think some of you are swayed by Woodhall too much !
     
  7. Woodhall sounds flat now lol

    Stalker got caught with silly shots but the last round was a joke. There was no way he didn't **** the 3rd, therefor he should have won.

    Yeah the work of the Mongolian wasn't getting credit. Without being bias I thought the Mongolian won the third round. Very close fight. Not much wrong with the decision.

    The Mongolian wasn't landing clean punches lad, throwing loads but hardly landing any clean shots, specially in the third.

    **** knows where Toms going to go from here, I wouldn't stay amateur if I was him, something similar could easily happen in brazil.

    Yeah I tend not to listen to them. And this goes for most commentary in boxing in general. Never acknowledge the away fighters work. Just pretend like they don't even exist and give barely no credit.

    I thought stalker won that fight.

    I had him losing the first by 1, winning the second by 1 and bossing the third. Easily won that by 2/3 points. Don't know wtf the judges were seeing

    You guys are mental, stalker lost that by about 2, lost the 2nd and last round and maybe a draw for the first, the commentry was ****ing awful, get the blinkers off.
