Tua vs Ibeabuchi was an action-packed fight, and at times tough to score! If you have not seen, watch it!
Nelson - De Leon was very difficult to score (but equally could have come under "toughest fights to stay awake")
How'd you score the 12th? Last time I watched it I felt like they were just trading rounds Great fight
Same can be said of the Clottey fight I had Cotto edge out both, I think I just felt his punches were more effective
Ji-Hoon Kim vs. Ali Rahimov Kim threw 1225 punches and landed 24% with 792 power punches. Rahimov threw 624 punches, landed 32%, and 420 power punches. I felt Rahimov was way more effective but Kim threw so much it was like he willed himself over Rahimov I kind of felt the same way in the Adamek vs Briggs rematch
I felt the Antonio Cervantes-Wilfredo benitez was a tough one to score. I scored it 145-143 for Benitez and what made it difficult was one's preference on scoring. I score on clean, effective punching, but on this one there was such a fine line on clean punching (Benitez) and effective punching (Cervantes). I was very comfortable with my score, it was just that I really had to stay focused on every punch.
Toney vs McCallum 1 - The rounds were so closely contested. Back and forth quality action. Tough to separate in most rounds.
For me, Holmes - Spinks II was a clear victory for Holmes. Also, the general consensus was after the fight that Holmes won. Actually, Holmes - Spinks I was the more difficults fight to score in my opinion. Holmes fought behind a consistent jab wheras Spinks fought in bursts. I scored it by 1 point for Holmes (judges had it as a split decision for Spinks) but I could see it going the other way.
I thought it was close but clear victory for Toney. I had it 115-113 Toney. (116-112 would also be fine) It was hard to ignore the clean and hard blows Toney landed.
Ray Mercer vs Lennox Lewis was always extremely tough for me to score, was a damn close fight that I always bounce between a draw or 1 point for either fighter
