    Dad is visiting for the rest of the week and we both enjoy watching recent fights, re-watched Salido Lopez 2 and Cloud-Campillo and i must admit i had forgotten the disgraced bs cards for Campillos fight, unbelievable to the point Clouds moms faints when they announce the winner, decisions like this are killing the sport and ending carrers, im very surprised the IBF didnt order a rematch this crap need to stop. any way us as fans can ask/demand a rematch? like maybe by a simple email to the IBF? i dont have tweeter but if the IBF has one maybe we can all tweet them asking for the rematch? i feel so bad for campillo he clearly won the fight.

    IBF already said they're not doing anything. The Texas Commission hasn't said anything yet, but their well-deserved reputation as one of the absolute worst commissions in the country if not the world means they probably don't give a **** either. Showtime are the ones most likely to force a rematch but I don't really know if they're likely to be affected by letter-writing or anything. Just a bad situation all around.

    I don't understand when people call for re-matches after some of these controversial outcomes. Do they think everything will get fixed if they fight again? Look what happened with the JMM-Poochiao re-matches... same exact thing as the last...

    There is no need for a rematch if he that clearly won imo, **** the ibf we as fans should recognize campillo as a two belts having champ that is top 4 in the division.

    Yeah it doesn't really work that way...that was a close fight and clearly many got caught up pulling for the underdog and cried robbery the minute it was over. It happens to all of us, I did the same thing after Pascal-Hopkins I...but that wasn't anymore a robbery than this was. I thought Cloud won the 1st (10-7), 4th, 5th, 11th, 12th...but that's just me. Even if you scored the fight for Campillo, how much could you really have him winning by? It's the same way for Hopkins/Pascal I, I bitched and cried about robbery, but when you do the math and watch the fight objectively it clearly wasn't a robbery...regardless who you felt won.

    i had Pascal get the draw in fight 1 he lost more rounds but putting Hopkins down twice evened it

    I actually thought Cloud won the 1st 4th 6th and 12th clearly

    though 5 and 11 were shaky but i also feel he won those too

    I know what you mean, i felt the same way about bhop vs pascal and scored it for bhop allthough a draw was possible. With cloud vs campillo I thought 114-112 campillo was the closest possible score, so I respectfully disagree that it is a draw or cloud win but I will say it was closer than vs shumenov.

    Cloud won like 3 rounds at best, it was an absolutely disgraceful robbery.

    Cloud isnt a cash cow like Pacquiao. If the fight goes the same way they should give it to Campillo this time... but anything is possible.

    The very best you can score it for Cloud is a draw if you gave him every close round and I would score the 11th to Campillo as he clearly took the first half of the round before the referee stopped it, to check Clouds cut I think it was, after that Cloud came back to win the second half of the round but not as clear as Campillo did for the first half. I also gave Campillo either 4 or 5.

    ...I had it a draw, sorry guys.


    CLOUD:1,4,6,11,12
    CAMPILLO: 2,3,5,7,8,9,10

    113-113

    The rounds I was a little uncomfortable with were 4,5 and 11, two of which are Cloud rounds, so I'd be happier with a Campillo card based upon these swings, but I could see a Cloud card if he had round 5 scored to him.
