    Is anyone really surprised that Hughes got robbed? 117-111 disturbing.

    Hughes won he had a plan that he executed. He hurt Kambosos to the body making Kambosos shield off his stomach with the left arm leaving that hand low, and then Hughes stepped to right and came over the top with the Southpaw jab.

    Kambosos did not seem to have a plan. Didn’t know if he had to box or to brawl. The first 4 rounds or so he just wanted to look cute and outbox Hughes, that didn’t work. He totally underestimated Hughes, and so did I to be honest.

    People cry Robbery in close fights. This wasn't close. It was a robbery.

    Can't wait to hear Teddy Atlas' take on this decision. His head will explode.

    You’re not gonna see anyone vote Kambosos. This was boxing robbery at its worst and sadly this won’t be the last.

    Im looking forward to see Atlas’ thoughts on it. The sheer amount of anger and disgust will be through the roof.

    I had it 117-112 . Maxi, but I said he'll get robbed before the decision was announced. At least they could have stolen it with a split decision.

    well, going by the poll, it appears there is at least one of the 3 blind ringside judges on here that voted for Kambosis.

    I had Hughes winning 119-109. There were a couple of close-ish rounds that, if you were feeling charitable, you might have scored for Kambosos. Disgraceful decision.
