    Another stain on boxing. Maxi Hughes was robbed of the W and the opportunity of life changing money in his next fight for the title.

    Hughes didn't dominate any fight last night. He did the majority of his work before Rd 6 then Hughes just coasted back through the second half of the fight and left too many rounds up in the air. I would hardly call that "domination" by any stretch of the word.

    Tim Bradley blows too much smoke up all your lazy asses.

    Congrats, 99% of the people who saw the fight disagree with you. Bradley sucks but he’s occasionally right. If you feel Kambosos deserved to get his arm raised, you are part of the problem. He was gifted a win and is a C level fighter.

    I don’t care either way because neither fighter is elite. I’m a boxing fan first and believe horrible decisions are bad for the sport. That was a very bad decision. A C+ fighter beat a C level fighter.

    Apart from all that mumble which doesn't relate to what I said. I didn't actually think Kambo won the fight.

    I just missed the part where Hughes dominated, he did FK all to deserve the description of domination. Most rounds after 6 were close rounds. It was far from a domination.

    It’s been so watered down that’s it’s hard to take seriously, but this was actually a robbery.

    I remember, they were getting ready to rob Buster in Tokyo until he took it out of the judges hands.

    They still tried to rob him!!!
    Remember the press conference with the classic line “There were 2 knockouts tonight”.
    They were trying to pull the old, ref ****ed things up with a long count and the first KO supersedes the second KO…

    Hughes vs Stevenson or Davis would be great for the sport, the fans would be over the moon with the notion of those sensational, titillating match ups.
