my problem with showtime commentator scorecards

I agree, Herrera won the fight.

you guys are talking like garcia didnt do anything in the fight. i agree that garcia looked lost at times in the fight but he clearly won some rounds by countering and getting the better of herrera in some exchanges. herrera controlled the pace of the fight but overall i thought that garcia landed the most crisp and effective punches in the fight. again, it was a close fight either way but in no way a bad decision.

Herrera said it himself, his friends called him pillow fists but what he lacked in power he made up in technique and sticking to his plan. He did land cleanly but with a nickname like pillow fists you won't see all of the punches he landed.

just because you have "pillow fists" doesnt mean that you cant see the punches land.

It was a bad decision. I've watched it now a couple of times. Garcia was never in control of the fight. Frankly, he only landed cleanly on a couple of occasions. Not this means too much, but he looked bloodied up after the fight and Herrera looked like he did when the fight started.

Just goes to show hoe subjective scoring can be. It'd be worth seeing what Fightscorecollecter has found.
