    Don't think anyone with a pair of eyes can argue with the fact stalker clearly won that fight tonight against Craig Evans.

    Respect to both men; absolute brilliant fight.

    These judging decisions are ridiculous though not just tonight its becoming all too common for my liking.


    Stalker; as cliche as it sounds; looked a completely different fighter at lightweight and had Evans in trouble numerous times.

    Would like to see them do it again.

    Good fight, would like to see it again but Stalker shouldn't have to. Result should be right the first time.

    Stalker won the fight, it was a very poor decision but I do not like him, do not rate and never have.

    Best Stalker I have seen - to be honest in the pro's he's always looked weak, sheepish and a bit like bambi on ice once hit.

    He looked like a man last night to be fair (he did have a size advantage on Evans who can do super feather)

    I had it Stalker by 3 rounds

    I have been watching boxing for over 30 years and that is the worst decision I have EVER seen! It seriously was that bad. The old cliche 'look at the fighters faces and work out the winner' was never more apt than this fight. I would expect a lot more 'outrage' over this result but unfortunately it seems most of us have become de-sensitised from years of horrible judging worldwide!

    Heard they are looking to rematch in December but am not sure Evans would want it.

    Adrian Gonzalez the alternative for the WBO inter continental lightweight title.

    haven't seen it, but if I see a neutral judge with 93-97 and then the always "reliable" Dave Parris 96-94, it's pretty clear what's up.

    I haven't seen that fight yet but I heard it was a bit of a shocking decision. Hopefully Frank sets up a rematch for Dec 19th or at least early next year

    It was close early on and both fighters were in it the whole way through. Having said that, I had Stalker pulling ahead and had it gone another 2 rounds, he would probably have stopped Evans. Dave Parris' card was a disgrace.

    I think Stalker had it by 2 rounds but quiet a few of the rounds were close.

    I think Evans thought all he had to do was Hit Stalker clean and he would go.

    i suppose it all comes down to styles enjoyed. although stalker looked better his punching is still very amateurish, watch again and see how he slaps away at the body instead of digging them in and picking the correct spot. i personally don't see the big problem with the draw because the best shots came from evans and as mentioned earlier some of the rounds were very hard to score. if you were looking at the quality over quantity then its not a robbery as suggested by others on here. think that evans might win a rematch, he isn't struggling with weight and stalker looked very thin on fight night unlike most people who weigh in looking like that but then look fresh and rehydrated at fight time.
