Haha. Clearly won. 2 Rounds aint clear mate. 1 round scored different to you results in a draw.
I didnt see the fight but followed guys on twitter and they seemed to think McDonnell won it easily. One of the quotes was "Ceja's doing a good job of punching thin air. Which, for him, isn't ideal as he's now so far behind on the cards that he needs a stoppage." I doubt your as good at scoring rounds as you think.
But yet your commenting on the fight. How does that make any sense? Instead of going by what others saw, watch it and make your own opinion.

VD, you are mad calling it a robbery.
I'm mad? No. I can score. Ricky Hatton's former tag team partner Dave Paris score it 118-110. You gonna tell me McDonnell won by 8 points? Bullshit. Paris filled out his scorecard last night while having dinner at McDonnell house.
Parris's scorecard is an embarrassment, but lets look at the people who actually watched the fight. One had it even, one for McDonnell but close. You had it for Ceja by 2. Robbery, really?
You should be more British. Even the ones of us that though Martin Murray might have ekked out a decision against Martinez were humble enough to know he wasnt going to get it.
I could of lived with the draw. It was......Nah, I'm lying. It would of still bothered me. Mainly cuz Ceja went to the body all fight and got zero credit for it. McDonnell fought better than I expected and landed showy punches. But he gave up most of the first rounds by running and doing little. And there's no doubt he lost the 10th and 11th.
Early on I liked his body attack and thought it was going tom catch up with McDonnell sooner or later but it became too obvious. He landed a few later on that were tasty but I didnt see it as a constant threat.
When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough
