    I feel bad for Travis. I thought he clearly won the fight (although not by a huge margin). He definitely landed more power punches and controlled the pace throughout. I was disappointed in Kaufmans waistline, however he banged it out for 12 rounds and hurt Areolla on several occasions.

    I agree. He walked Arreolla down in the 6,7,8 and 9th until the low blow that Areolla milked (fine smart strategy) with 38 seconds left. Can not find 7 rounds in the fight to give Chris which is what he needed for win.

    Most people would probably have agreed with you before the Stiverne fight, but Wilder has now proven his ability to take punches (and maintain his composure) when it counts.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought so

    How you guys score 4? The tv crew thought Arreola dominated I disagreed

    Ultimately had it 115-112 Kauffman 1 round wider than Farhood

    Also I dont picture Arreola coming back without the 6 minutes of rest with 38 seconds of boxing in between

    Kauffman was a better boxer but wasnt explosive or athletic enough to drive it home

    Arreola was lighter but he wasnt any faster, explosive, or better conditioned. I question his methods of dropping the weight
