    I'm still upset about the 116-112 scorecard, that seems to have been forgotten about because the right result was reached but that was without doubt one of the most disgusting scorecards I've seen for a while.

    It would have been rather generous to give Burns 2 rounds but to give him 4 is criminal in my opinion.

    I want somebody to question that judge, I think that card deserves some sort of investigation.

    Wish I'd have taken a gamble and backed Indongo; assumed Burns would have enough left for a tough fight. And with cards like that awful 116-112 being put in, then you can never rule him out.

    I guess we shouldn't be so shocked really. I thought Burns lost the Relikh fight and he hasn't really had a true test in a while where he has impressed.

    Not sure he has to retire right away though, maybe try mixing it back at domestic level for a fight or two
