    How is this thread still going when the OP lists only 4 of 11 of the press row that had Margo winning?

    i gave him the first and i think the 5th. i have to rewatch the fight to give the exact round. the rest of the fight he was getting backed down beat up and tortured by a man who has no regard for human life.

    Effective Agression is one of the four criteria judges use to score fights. Even if punches land on arms and elbows, if it demonstrably effects the opponent it can be counted as scoring...

    (The others are clean punching, defense, and ring generalship).

    It looks to me like four had Margarito winning, four had it a draw, and three had it for Williams. That means four of 11 sportswriters had Margarito winning; hardly "most."

    I had it 7-5 for PW. He clearly won it but it was not the schooling people try to make it seem like.
    I think in the rematch PW better learn some defense because if Margarito starts early like he has lately PW won't be standing at the end.

    I hadn't posted here in quite some time until recently, and I've seen some dumb **** from back in the day, but how this keeps cropping up is beyond me. And how the judges had it a split decision is beyond me as well. Mayweather CLEARLY won that fight, and I was trying to give DLH rounds. I think that was only the 2nd time I'd ever rooted for DLH.

    It isn't possible for the human brain to mass process a perfect system of scoring taking into account multiple criteria for what's going on second by second, moment by moment - so don't insult my intelligence. This is utter hyperbole. ^ It's hard enough for most people to determine if punches are landing, let alone multiple alternating criteria for what's going on between two figures tussling at full combat speed. Don't bull**** me. If you scored this fight 8-4 in favor of Williams you simply aren't applying the proper method. It's that simple. Who the **** are you calling biased? I don't give the first crap about either guy, nor do I have a preference politically what any of this is about. TRUTH and REALITY are the issue here. NOTHING ELSE. Get real.

    Your superiority complex is getting really ****ing annoying. The criteria for judging fights is easily accessible to anyone with an internet connection, so please stop with this self-righteous I-am-an expert crap. Because your not.

    Mr. Insecure, you need worry about your own ****. If you can't handle chatting with the boys on the porch, get your punk ass back in the kitchen with the girls. Was I talking to you? I am an expert on absolutely nothing but common sense and realism, as are most people who have even a basic clue as to how to understand this stuff. There are PLENTY of people here who get it. Try to keep up.
