    I watched the unedited version and felt Banks was clearly robbed. I had 49-46 for Banks. I can't see Smith winning more than 2 rounds. I gave him only the 4th. He was moving foward but Banks was landing more punches.
    I feel sorry for Banks. He could have won the fight and even gone to the semi-finals. I hope to see a rematch in The Contender Finale because Banks deserves it.

    I haven't watched the unedited version but from what I saw on the show format I agree. Banks really surprised me. I thought Smith was gonna go in there and blow him out.

    Robbed is a bit much, but I thought Banks won while watching the uneditted version, the crowd pretty much agreed.

    Didn't matter, neither guy was going to move on in the tourney.

    I had Banks 3-2 1st round and 4th round going to Smith, close fight though I could see it going either way. I wouldn't put it into the Robbery catagory, maybe the unfortunate category
