    Ouma really should have won.

    Vanes should be thanking his lucky stars he got the decision

    I thought it was a CLOSE fight, in which either fighter claiming victory...but the margin of the scorecard simply shows that the "other kid" got all the close rounds.

    Thats why when I score fights....all CLOSE rounds (rounds in which no fighter CLEARLY wins)...I score it 10-10 if theres a lot of activity or 9-9 if no fighter lands much.

    That what score will reflect a close fight.

    Example..I was watching Cotto vs Clottey with several friends....some were Cotto fans, some were Clottey fans. And if you all remember, THAT WAS A CLOSE AS FIGHT. The Cotto fans scored the really close rounds for Cotto and Vice-Versa for Clottey fans...and in the end, there score cards were not indicative of a CLOSE FIGHT...118-110 ON BOTH SIDES...and my scorecard was 114-113 Cotto.

    you're right but unfortunately it doesn't work that way. A fighter can win a round by a hair and its 10-9.

    It's not a matter of seeing the fight. It's a matter of corrupt promoters buying the judges, because they don't want to see their undefeated cash cow lose it's worth to an unmarktable fighter with 6 losses on his record.

    I thought Vanes won by a round but for Ouma to lose by wide scores just shows these judges only gave Ouma the rounds he dominated which show biased judging.

    It was a clsoe fight,I thought Ouma won it by 3 points but I could see how you would have a draw or Martirosyan winning.

    The scorecards however give you reason to call this a robbery.

    I saw the fight and I had Vanes winning by 2 rounds. Even in the round with the flash knockdown you have to consider that Vanes won the round before & after the KD.

    I wasn't a robbery but many rounds were close & open to interpretation. I always thought of Ouma as a very busy fighter but he didn't throw enough in the later rounds.

    They had the right man winning, but not by much. Good fight for Ouma, bad one for Vanes

    The margin was too wide. I think 1 point margin one way or another would have been fair.

    Those scores were total BS, I has Ouma winning by 2 rounds, 97-92 even after the KD!? This guy needs to learn how to judge.
