    Takam is such a classy guy. Even after getting robbed he said he respects Tony.

    To be fair, Yoka was also robbed… by Virgil Hunter......He knew Yoka wasn’t going to win this

    Takam said that he has worked for this fight even more than what he worked for the fight vs AJ. That he worked so hard because he knew how good Yoka is, and that Yoka is a true champion. He said that he was a fan of Yoka too.

    Obviously Takam has taken too many punches in his career.

    At dawn there will be a lot of complaints from the agents, the judges will answer: but what could I do, the guy doesn't know how to throw a punch!

    Virgil Hunter has done a miserable job with Tony. The scoring was abysmal as well, but the corner advice and lack of improvement over several fights has been way more telling.

    I dunno guys, I think 96-94 Takam is fair.

    If the judges mixed up which column the fighters name was on for a couple of rounds, like I did. And then threw in a sympathy round. Add it with giving the one close round to Yoka and it's perfectly fair.

    You should have seen Bakole vs Yoka Bakole won every round and I think he dropped him 4x too. One of the judges had it a draw, the other two had it close.

    To be positive, good on Takam. At 42, to go in and batter a young Olympic gold medalist in his home town in that fashion was really impressive. Glad he got his moment in the sun before retirement. All the best Carlos

    I'm pretty sure it was Keller who scored if for Yoka.

    Yoka is a euro level fighter.

    I was afraid of that. :ohno:

    Takam whooping him seemed a sure thing, but getting credit..?

    Dropped him twice, and had him badly hurt in another round or two.

    There was a round or two early in the fight where Yoka landed a few shots and Takam was considerably more active but had a lot of his punches blocked. Even if I gave those two rounds to Yoka I would have it 97-93 Takam. Those scorecards were horrible

    Ive seen that fight, I am a reactionary guy so I yeah that was probably worse, Yoka is absolutely horrible though. He even won the olympics via a robbery
