    Don't listen to the commentators, punches that aren't noticed by them still count if the judges see them. Aggression doesn't win, scoring punches are all that matters. This is a close fight.

    Not happy if the Brazilian wins, gave the Indian every round.

    haha listen to the commentators during the slowmo replay, still trying to call the win for the Indian while the Brazilian is landing punces in front of their face.

    Amateur boxing isn't scored on rounds. I hate the Brazillian fighters but he was landing punches while retreating.

    Yes, yes it is. To win a round, you score the most punches. If you dont like my phrasing, then this is what I meant : "I thought the Indian scored more punches in each of the 3 rounds."

    Think of it as 1 x 9 minute round with breaks. You do not win rounds.

    At the last worlds watch the 64 final between dos santos and berinchyk. I swear to god the brazilian went down at least a dozen times, probably more than 15. same with conceicao against lomachenko but not as many, they all do that like it's some sort of strategy.
