    I'm not saying it was a robbery. I'm saying that it's obviously not a coincidence when their boys are getting the rub of the green in these close fights like almost every single time.

    Come to the US to prove yourself but just so you understand our three home judges are only going to give you the rub of the green once every ice age and our boys are never going to travel to your backyard and if they do the judges have to come from neutral countries :facepalm:

    Clearly it’s that time the month for you. You are always moody when you are on the rags.

    I didn't say it was a robbery either. Your first post was spot on.

    I would have to watch it again, but with 2 KD'S and alot of hard close rounds to score which could have gone either way watching it live, I think a draw was the best outcome.

    And it is Ortiz who can't make the press conference.

    I get you, but you said it yourself, lots of close rounds.

    The KDs were not from crazy hard punches, they came from Ortiz being off balance.

    Ortiz clearly landed the harder punches, Bohachuk has crazy resilience, and Ortiz outlanded him in Jabs, power punches, and body punches.

    The only thing that Bohachuk did better was catch Orti off balance.

    Bohachuk landed some good shots in every round, it was a tit 4 tat type of fight, but the KD's saved Bohachuk from losing on my card, and they were legit KD'S as well. I'd like to see a rematch at some point. Ortiz knows what it is now to go 12, he's needs to get into better condition for future fights.

    Is it just me or are some of these punch counts getting a bit more generous lately? I’m watching them more closely now.
    The power punch stats are a way off, they are counting glancing shots on the arms as power punches at times, or I could be wrong

    Oh, so you had Bohachuk winning, I'll have to talk to @DobyZhee to reevaluate your standing as best judge on ESB.. lol.. kidding.

    It was tit for tat, but Ortiz had the advantage on the tit for tat and also on the cleaner harder punches.

    Ortiz will only get better. He will probably do even better in the rematch as he is peaking and he got what he needed, 12 hard rounds.

    First off, fight of the year for me. Excellent scrap, Ortiz is a junkyard dog.

    But the only way you can get to an Ortiz win is to first give him ALL the close rounds and score the round with the second knockdown a 10-9 Bohachuk instead of a 10-8. The latter is reasonable, the former is not (three separate human beings all believe you won all the razor-close rounds? Really?). This to me felt like a draw and should have been. It's a "robbery" only in the sense that, if Bohachuk was the house fighter, there's no way in hell he loses. Not with a bunch of close rounds and two knockdowns. He has a loss on his resume that he shouldn't have.

    ...having said that, I wasn't bothering to keep score, because I was sure this was ending in a knockout. So take the above for whatever it's worth. :lol:
