    Judge:

    114-114 (Tony Crebs)
    117-111
    115-113

    WTF???

    How could anyone possibly score this fight a draw or 115:113? Adamek landed more and boxed better. Look at their faces. I think that those refes gave Arreola round each time the ring trembled from Arreolas elephant-like rushes. Props to him, cuz he showed heart like always but he didn't won this time.

    From Boxrec, which is very close to reality:

    • Adamek trained for this bout in Houston with Ronnie Shields, former trainer of Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson, ranked # 93 among light welterweights all-time by Boxrec
    • Adamek bloodied Arreola's face in the later rounds, which influenced the scoring in his favor
    • Despite the scoring, did not appear to be a close bout, as Adamek appeared more aggressive in winning the later rounds and the bout
    • Adamek took this bout near Arreola's home town, gave away three inches in height and 33 pounds in weight, but many Polish fans were in the house cheering for Adamek
    • Adamek circled Arreola and countered him for most of the bout, landing three or four punches to every punch thrown by Arreola, building an early lead on points

    Arreola has turned out to be a fat bum. Don't get me wrong I like adamek and I'm glad he won. But Arreola has talent but he is to lazy to use it.

    Crowd was influencing the Arreola bum rushes...I saw Ademek getting in good shots in those exchanges and then moving away.

    Not to mention Adamek's shoe came undone which effected his footwork and may have cost him a rnd or two. Once the shoe was taped up he was able to execute his game plan again and take control of the fight :bbb

    114-114 was a bit off, but I thought 115-113 was an ok score, and 117-111 was perfect. Either way, he didn't and Adamek looked damn good.

    I had it exactly like Lederman, but I could definitely see giving Adamek the 1st round, so 116-112, or 117-111. There has just got to be a way to stop this home town bull****! The real problem is that noone holds judges accountable. The appropriate commission should review scorecards, and if a judge has a couple flaky ones, he's done and he pays a huge fine.

    Adamek beat the HBO boxer. I knew that he had to be convincingly to win this fight clearly on points and he was
