    114-112 Bobby Chacon

    What a remarkable war, its hard to find many fights that produce 'WOW' moment pretty much every round but this fight certainly does that. Such a tight close fight, either man would have been deserving of the win. Chacons face was an absolute mess by the end, brutal stuff.

    Easily best choice of the series so far (including TFFPs old one) :good I would be keen on Froch-Kessler, am in need of rescoring it although I don't feel its controversial myself, close but clear Kessler win when I saw it live, maybe watching it again will change my mind! Pac-JMM II will never get boring despite how many times its viewd.

    Tapia-Ayala I is a must :yep I love that fight.

    Right, Kos is usually the man to speak to when it comes to uploads. Do you reckon you could upload a copy of Froch-Kessler for us all to score in a few weeks, mate?:think I think every other fight is on Youtube at this point in time (I have another link for Tapia-Ayala if need be). Cheers either way:good.

    If we lived in the world of Tron, then that post would be fine, mate. I can't see anything but numbers and letters, though. Where's Ishy when we need him?:mad:

    EDIT: All right, cheers, Ant. Didn't know.

    In fairness, usually I am the butt of the ESB computer geek jokes, so it was nice to finally see someone almost as bad as me when it comes to technojargon. You're not alone, fella:good. Ishy, Gaz and Kos are the forum's internet/computer wizards.

    Ishy, when you read through this thread next, please let us know how you embed Daily Motion vids et al:grouphug:respect.

    [ dm ] insert video url [ /dm ] - no spaces though. Think it's something like that.

    Anyway, how long before we move to another fight cos I still need to score Boza/Chacon II?

    Cheers. I knew you'd know:lol:.

    Chacon - Boza-Edwards II will run until this Saturday. After that things will return to normal and we will score fights weekly again. The next 3 fights that we are scoring are JMM-Pac II, Tapia-Ayala and Froch-Kessler.

    Ashamed to say I'd not seen this fight before - but here we go...

    10-9 C
    10-8 C
    8-10 BE
    9-10 BE
    9-10 BE
    10-10
    9-10 BE
    9-10 BE
    10-9 C
    10-9 C
    9-10 BE
    10-8 C

    114-114

    This was a horrid fight to score though. If it was simply on the overall dominance, then Boze-Edwards would have won, but it's a round by round thing, so Chacon's perseverance kept him in it.

    Really, for me there were three rounds which effect the scoring most, the others were fairly clear. The first, the second and the sixth. In the first, I felt Boze-Edwards was winning the round in dominant fashion - not enough for a 10-8, but a clear 10-9. The knockdown made it a 10-9 for Chacon because he technically won the round, but it was a flash knockdown. If I'd given this 10-8 to Chacon, then II'd have had him winning by 115-113, same as Duane Ford.

    The second... well, Boze-Edwards again was dominant, but the knockdown was so emphatic that it had to be a 10-8 for Chacon.

    The sixth was a very tight round - and I felt Chacon's better shots were equal to Boze-Edwards volume of punches. But there's not much in this one, so I went for a draw. Could easily argue for a Boze-Edwards round though.
