Who did you score wolak/rodriguez for?

A draw was eminently defensible, and with a swing of ONE round - of which there were SEVERAL close ones - of course one could see Wolak winning.

This attitude is baffling. In NO WAY was this a clear cut victory for either man. It was a classic close fight that could have gone either way.

 

Well there was one judge that had Rodriguez winning 7-3, which is what I had. And 7-3 is a fairly clear winner. I just don't see two more rounds you could give Wolak.
And I don't want take anything away from the performance these two put on. It was fantastic. I just thought there was a clear winner.

 

Rodriguez, close but clear.

 

No your poor, underspecified example has not made it clear at all that this would be a highway robbery. Clean effective punching is always the criterion to be used, above the other three judging criteria and above mere quantity. If the Malignaggi-style fighter's punches do absolutely no damage whatsoever and don't even have an impact, I have no idea how you can say that takes clear precedence over the guy who's actually hurting his opponent. The answer to the old question of "who would you rather be" certainly wouldn't be the guy who was repeatedly hurt and failed to even come close to hurting or even affecting his opponent.

 

what a classic.

only caught the last 3 rounds from my Gym while I was working out..

 

I do know who i would have rather been in this fight. most people just looking at DR's unmarked face and Wolak's severely damaged face would assume Wolak was the loser in the effective punching category. Wolak clearly can not say, "you ought to see the other guy!" Yea Wolak is super tough and unrelenting physically and mentally, but he could not have gone 12 rounds with DR. he was really getting beaten around at the end. Since it was a draw I didnt lose money on this fight, but hey I won money on the Willams fight, so I aint complaing too much

 

I thought a draw was fair. I can't wait to see the rematch............

 

Six-fo for Delvin.

Good little scrap...draw is cool..rematch is necessary.
