    There was only one round where he outlanded Ward. It was the 9th I think?

    So, potentially, Froch could have won the fight 115-113?

    You do realize how laughable that is, right?

    I gave Froch No. 3 and No. 9, both close.

    If you wanted to be nice, give him a third. If you want to give him every benefit of the doubt possible, find a fourth.

    But the 7-5 scores were robbery cards, no two ways about it.

    At least the right man won.

    Had it 119-110, and i felt like I was being generous to Froch. 115-113 twice? Those two must have been high...

    It was an utter disgrace and bordering on suspicion. You can't be THAT incompetent. Can you?

    I've just watched the fight and after round 9 I had ward 6-3 up. After round 10 I felt carl needed a knockout which he didn't get but he did finish strong.

    Rbr 7-5 is believable as long as you consider the context of the whole fight because it wasn't really close as a fight despite some of the rounds being close.

    Ward's accuracy was amazing though. Some times he'd throw a fifth of carl yet land more shots.

    I gave him 5, 9, and 11, but that may have been generous.

    Says who?

    You?

    **** off :yep



    Scoring even rounds is a fairer way of scoring and getting a more accurate gauge on the fight.

    Froch won maybe 2... you're reaching giving him 3... I must not be ****ed up enough to 'officially' judge a fight properly.
