All Delvin people are screaming robbery but anyone has seen the fight?Even the local media(south africa) said : "the South African was outfought, outpunched and outsmarted by the Dominican-born craftsman... Rodriguez appeared to win seven of the 12 rounds against Hlatshwayo's two, with the remaining three even." ...
sucks...i also found that rodriguez even dropped Hlatshwayo's in the 9th and was chasing him to death in the last 3 rounds ... they said he Hlatshwayo was in survival mode after the knockdown...and still manages to get a draw...:huh :-( ****ing home town decisions...:gun
It's sounds like one of the worst robberies in quite some time. I've been reading FightNews.com for years and they never insert opinion in their stories but on this one they wrote: RODRIGUEZ GETS DRAW DESERVED MUCH MORE "It was obvious that Rodriguez was the much superior boxer as he would throw beautiful three and four punch combinations from the outside and then tie Hlatshwayo up before the South African could fire back. By the middle rounds the fight had become a classic boxer vs. brawler bout with Hlatshwayo taking four shots just to land one." This is the kind of **** boxing has to get control of if they ever want to return to the good ole' days.
