But a 116-112 victory for Maidana !?
Morales landed the much more accurate effective punches. He lost the last two rounds, but before that he had already won 7 rounds.
I don't think 116-112 is outside the realms of credibility.
I think the majority would concede Morales lost round 1,2,11 and 12. If they splitthe rest, that would be 116-112.
It's not impossible.
I had it a very close fight, but Maidana deserved the nod imo and 116-112 although a bit wide is hardly a corrupt score.
