I didn't score it round by round. I generally felt is was about 8-4 Maidana.
With just the one viewing - I can clearly remember thinking Maidana definitively won rounds - 1,3,9,11,12. Morales definitively won round 8.
That's 5 rounds to 1 to Maidana. The other six rounds were 50/50 or Morales rounds. So the only way Morales won the fight is if you favour him in all the close rounds. That's what the SKY commentators did

i personally thought that Morales won the 3rd, i had Maidana winning rounds 1 and 2, then he fizzled out a bit from the 5th till the 8th and yea i had Morales taking a clean sweep of those rounds
Funny old game this scoring lark. I'm not sure Maidana clearly won the 2nd. I'm certain Maidana didn't lose all through 5-8 (well maybe if they were close). He definitely lost 8. But either 6 or 7 i'm sure Maidana bossed the majority of the round before Morales finished with an eye catching last 30 secs. I'm sure of this because I laughed when the commentator said - "a Morales round"
