    Stalker's style could best be described as a scarecrow blowing in the wind.

    No, it was shite scoring and Stalker wasn't impressive but he didn't lose that.

    Colin needs to realize that there is a difference between a pawing jab and just aimlessly flicking out your lead hand

    Actually it does, to an extent.

    Judges are supposed to disregard slaps or punches that aren't cleanly connected with the flats of the knuckle area of the gloves and not click the button for them.

    I think the Mongolian landed more "stamps" than he threw punches there.

    He also needs to realize that Uranchimeg is liable to rip his head off with a straight left if he doesn't pull it back into position after flicking it. :yep
