    I haven't seen the fight yet but was wondering what the consensus was.

    Most here, incl. myself, thought the decision was fair. Close LSC win.

    Santa Cruz was the clear winner of a fight that was close, 8 rounds to 4 was a closer score imo.

    CST80 and David Haye called it a draw - as did one judge. Most feel LSC won.

    CST can't score fights to save his life.

    I thought LSC won the rematch clearer than Frampton won the first fight, good performance from him but surely has to be a trilogy.
    Both have come out with huge credit after the two fights, massive respect to both.

    Nah, Santa Cruz was the deserved winner.

    I picked Frampton to win this fight, because LSC has always been a face first butthead fighter. But he proved versatile moving, jabbing, fighting off his back foot, holding when needed, countering, that was the best of LCS I have ever seen. Maybe it takes another great fighter to bring those things out so it would seem.

    I had the first fight a draw and the second LSC the clear winner (despite not scoring round 12). Frampton lost, and his body language said so as well.

    Wanted Framton to win but naaaaah he lost fair and square in a technical fight that was close but not close enough IMO to call for a draw score from any judge

    Now, now. His opinion happens to agree with the majority, so don't blame it on bias.
    Water is wet, the sun is hot and CST don't know boxing. Those are just basic laws of nature.
    However, we still appreciate you.

    If Frampton had the workrate that LSC did he would win pretty clear.

    Santa Cruz's work rate was higher in the first fight that he lost by almost 200 punches. LSC threw 884 this time, over 1K last, the difference this time is LSC had almost 100 more connects this time then Frampton.
