I go to a fair amount of shows and see honest judging for the most part (in fact almost always) but last night the judges were either incompetent or dishonest.

Smoger was terrific as usual as referee. He slipped a punch at the bell.

That fight was a draw.
No it wasn't a draw, least not in my view.

Rodriguez may have pulled it out in the tenth, 96-94 at best, 100-90 from all 3 judges was ridiculous. It was a prejudged fight.

Neither was it a shut out as the judges had it.

Tarver once again led his fellow commentators and viewers astray with his nonsense commentating and taking the opposing view just to be a dick as usual.

Rosinsky did well and pressed the fight, even won a few middle rounds, but he did NOT THROW ENOUGH PUNCHES.

I had Rosinsky winning 3 rounds, 4 at the absolute most.

Edwin won that fight, but it was a good, tough fight, not a shut out.
I still say it was prejudged. Edwin may have pulled it out in the tenth but those judges were influenced by the prefight hype and Rodriguez being America's supposedly best super middle weight prospect. 100-90, by all 3 judges? No way.
Oh no I agree it was a fix. The judging was atrocious. BUT the result was correct, Rodriguez won that fight.
I could see a draw. I was leaning toward a draw myself although I could also Edwin winning 6-4. All three announcers had it a draw by the way. Many of the rounds were close. It was a solid fight though.
