    I had it 115-113 Lopez. Gave Josh the last four rounds. He was totally inactive with his jab. In the earlier rounds there was just too many lapses in activity to score him any rounds. Perhaps a bit gun shy with his jaw issues. Warrington finished strong although he deployed very rough tactics. Surprised he didn’t get a match room decision. Fair decision. He left it too late

    Warrington is like the Leeds Andre Ward but the later's filthy dirty tactics are deemed the height of skill by many fans.

    Good that two of the judges didn't rob Lopez but like I keep saying we don't do the three home judges stacking the deck for world title fights over here. Nowhere does outside of the US

    Howard Foster strikes twice in the space of a week, though

    There’s something so funny about Warrington winning this belt back by battering a 45 year old man and ducking his nemesis, talking about big unifications in Vegas or New York, only to lose it to a Mexican at home in the first defence

    Hearns trying to pay off the judges with a loaded envelope, Arum moves in afterwards and hands them a bigger envelope. Arum knows how to play the game and counter the game

    Lol at lópez.

    "I knew he was a dirty fighter, but honestly I got surprised about how dirty he really was. It was amazing how the referee allowed it, and how he didnt do his job. It made me a bit sad, tbh"

    Ouch!!!

    Agree with this. Ward's low blow game is the GOAT. I've not seen anybody else score a tko with a low blow like he did before.

    I’m glad he addressed the tactics of Warrington albeit more courteously and with more deference than I thought he would.

    It's ridiculous that Warrington spent 36 minutes head butting his opponent and the ref only warned Lopez for holding or some bs.

    Come on Josh, saying Lopez was complaining alot. You lead with your head and your fights end up with the other guy getting cut from a butt. The common factor to all these fight are you.
