    Famrboxer in HELL!

    Anyway, I thought it was awful scoring. I had Ortiz up by 2. I thought the ref checking on Wilder after he was out on his feet was a little odd seeing as they didn't do that when Ortiz actually went down.

    If I'm AJ's team I think "screw going to the US, we won't get a fair crack"

    If I'm Wilder's team I look at the fact AJ was ahead of Wlad on the cards and the Takam stoppage and think "screw going to the UK, we won't get a fair crack"

    Not sure where that leaves us.

    Johnny Nelson on the British broadcast was genuinely surprised when he heard the scores.

    Watched the fight again. That was straight up BS :lol:.
    Wilder wasnt even that hurt. He walked back to his corner just fine and he came out of his corner looking fine. He knew where he was and what was going on.

    Also ref did let Wilder hang on Ortiz without splitting them up.
