    If you score those bouts on punches landed its hard not to score them for Dirrell and BHop, Groves/Degale was a lot closer so i wasnt bothered about the scoring, just a lot of people thought Degale scored the better shots.

    Calzaghe didnt land many meaningful shots in that bout ea=ither but looked to push the fight more whilst BHop used spoiling tactics and held a lot. Dirrell ran too much but round by round he should have won.

    BTW I wanted both Calzaghe and Froch to win and was happy that they did. I just didnt score the bouts in favour of them

    Calzaghe landed more meaningful punches more often. Hopkins scored a KD in the first which counts as a meaningful shot even though it didnt hurt Calzaghe and then a headbutt and punch at the end of round 7, a round Hopkins lost after that you tell me about all of these meaningful punches as Calzaghe outlanded Hopkins in every round and manuvered Hopkins at will.
    Froch out hustled Dirrell and outlanded Dirrell

    Groves was a bigger winner than I first thought. watch the fight again and dont listen to the commentary. round 5 and 8 looked Groves rounds to me. DeGale didnt land bigger shots than Groves. In the 9th round Groves was stumbled by a headbutt not a big punch

    Lou Duva told Meldrick that he needed to win the 12th round, so he went straight to JCC to get the beating of his life. Had Duva told him to get in his bike, he would have won the belt, and perhaps won't lose his mind.

    WHittaker did make ODLH look bad at times, and even easily avoided a lot of punches,... But he made himself look bad too, and in no way was that fight controversial...., Part of it could be he was playing because he didnt want to take chances, didnt really take big shots. But he knew what was coming at him and didnt wnat to chance it ... His defense was suburb but didnt do enough and let Oscar take some rounds he could have won.. Dont feel sorry for his ass and all his sympathizers about how he always got robbed.. People dotn bring up when he got a gift against Wilfredo Rivera
