    Many peoople like to bash the judging in Texas, and sometimes i can understand that. i was expecting Cloud to showcase his skills, but instead i saw Campillo break him down, and then get robbed. It was a shame to witness that in person, but we here in CC know who really won. Boxing fans from Texas get frustrated as well, especially when we see something like this:

    This is when and where a riot "should" break out and chairs s"should" be landing on judges heads.

    Everyone knows Campillo won.. It's a damn shame they robbed him. If Cloud didn't knockdown Campillo twice in the 1st round, I wonder if they still would of found a way to rob him??

    Typical US decision.

    Harder to get a decision against a local black fighter than it was to get a decision against Sven Otkke in Germany.

    He still wouldnt have won on the official cards, it would have been a draw.

    After the first round, i didn't think Campillo would last long, but he showed a lot of heart and won the fans over.

    Campillo trying to take over Glen Johnson's role???

    90% of the crowd was Mexican or of Mexican descent. The crowd related much more to the Spaniard then the Black American from Florida. The local crowd favored Campillo, especially after the performance he had.

    Not saying, it was hostile, it was neutral when the fight started.

    :think ok.

    Actually I was just leaning on Rayrobinson saying it is difficult to win against American on their country. That what you told explaing the cheering for Campillo at the end.
