It was no Robbery

Sure. No Yank **** would bother starting with that.

 

Definitely not a robbery. Draw at best. No way an outsider gonna get a decision in some one's hometown, esp. when he is the champ, any where.

 

I agree that it goes to far to really call it a robbery, but the fact that the guy who a minority of people saw winning actually did win the fight by the same, reasonably wide score on all cards makes it look a little more fishy than it would have done if Alexander had won a split decision with a 1 or 2 point spread on each card.

 

What state is boxing in where the traveling fighter is expected to lose a decision in his opponents hometown regardless of his performance

 

True no robbery just a close fight. you only have yourself as a fighter to blame for making it a close fight. If u go 12 rounds u run the risk of losing a decision as it is based on 3 peoples oppinions. If Kotelnik had stepped it up and went for it more he prob would have won. BTW i scored it a draw

 

The fact that Kotelnik landed the cleaner, better shots and Alexander was hitting **** can't be denied by anybody. But ALexander threw a lot more, even though hitting not much but Kotelnik's guard and occasionaly landed some, he was the busier fighter and that was the factor for most judges including that **** Lederman... Do they score the cleaner shots or the punch output in which they think seeing a punch landing? Who knows?

So I can say both men deserved the win, but hey, one had to be screwed...

 

i'm glad to see the hysteria has died down and people are taking another look. this was not casa-cruz, diaz-malignaggi, etc. the scores, ESPECIALLY lederman's, were wide but that happens. as richie leon said, if it were an SD with a point different on either side no one would be complaining

 

thats all i had to know

U go any where, Great Britain, Germany, USA, any where, they almost always protect their fighter. Don King, Arum, Oscar, don't matter. Boxing is full of corrupt arseholes. What can we do? Reform. Probably never happen. Where's McCain when u need him?

 

:rofl

 

Clear robbery. Fans should know how to differentiate a robbery and a close call. Alexander-Kotelnik, Shumenov-Campillo: daylight robberies, Froch-Dirrell, Williams-Martinez: close fights.

I had Kotelnik ahead 117-111 and many had the same score, but there are those with 118-110. Many many had it 116-112 to the challenger and 80% overall to Andreas. THIS is a robbery, and if not, what is?

 

A huge **** up
