    Good call.


    I may be in a very small minority, but I thought Nelson's skills on the ropes in the first fight kept it very competitive and a draw was not the worse decision I had seen (even if 8/4 Nelson, by one of the judges was clearly terrible).


    But no way did I think Nelson would dominate the rematch, indeed I figured Fenech had somehow sorted his hands out and would win comfortably.
