One of the worst decisions I have seen in a long time. Decisions like this are ruining boxing for me. The fix was in on this one for sure. What a crock of S***.

he looked like a punching bag with legs

that was a robbery in broad daylight man.

The Institute for the Blind{or sight impaired} is getting out in the workforce and happily contributed to last nights judging at the Santa Cruz/Casamayor fight. The scorecards were in Braille. There next contribution will be in the form of referees. 8)

When your 36 and take a year off, it makes for a bad combination. Casamayor was clearly rusty. That was obvious. The fight was uneventful. But to call it a robbery is ridicules. Santa Cruz came forward all night. But by no means did he dominate. He never hurt Casamayor (the knock down was bogus). And a lot of the rounds were similar. I actually scored the fight for Cruz. But only by a round. I got no problem with Casamayor getting a so-called gift win. He's been robbed of 4 wins in his career. It's about time he caught a break.

Yeah, and if you scored it for Cruz, then he got beat bad, and it was robbery. Fair enough to say he deserves a break. At least you admit it was a gift win.
