    Yes, I notcied that as well. Jim Watt is a commentating clown.

    I had Lynes winning by five points

    Well that's boxings fault and not Lynes.

    Lynes did what he had to do and won the fight.

    No matter which way you cut it, take out all this "you have to rip the title form the champion" "you have to score a knockdown in everyround to get a draw" ****, Lynes won the fight!

    You can't say Lynes shpould have done more because he did do more. A lot more than Branco.

    The flaw is with boxing and not the way Colin Lynes boxed.

    Even Branco knew he didnt win the fight for **** sake!

    The judges were probably made an offer they couldnt refuse or some ****!

    for what its worth i had lynes 3 points ahead, but a fair few of the rounds were close so i wouldn't call it a complete robbery.

    Same...

    But you start to wonder when we can't find a damn person that saw a Branco win, how the **** did 2/3 judges?

    I don't think there are too many that are lacking in objectivity when it comes to Colin Lynes either

    Close to a robbery.

    Lynes lost the fight against a shot fighter because he bottled it when the fight became physical. Why people rate this guy is beyond me quite frankly. This is guy stopped Lenny Daws and Samuel Malinga for crying out loud.

    I personally think it could have gone either way. Cynthia Lynes started well but got outhustled when Branco got physical with her in the 2nd half of the fight.
