    Nope. People say every close fight was a "robbery." Just another in a LONG list of debatable decisions. :nod

    No, but Erik won IMO. Certainly a superior fighter.

    Saw the fight, and had him winning for sure.

    Poor Erik.

    Diaz isn't gonna last though. If Morales were still in his prime, he would've KO'd that cat a long time ago.

    Not really. Nice try though.

    Morales wasn't robbed but he deserved the victory.

    morales deserved to win by a slightly larger margin than diaz winded up winning on the scorecards, thats why I couldn't believe it when they said "still". I thought it was just bad scoring - I didn't realize how bad until it was too late.
