two great fighter that all i can say. isreal just got the edge though.
I'm not arguing the fact that Vasquez won, I feel the decision was fair. A lot of the rounds were incredibly close; I personally had Marquez by 1, but I am not a professional judge.
I just thought when I watched the 12th round that a case could be made for it being scored 10-7, as in my mind it could have been a 10-8 without the KD, so if that was the case, wouldn't the KD make it a 10-7 round?
I also don't think scoring it a 10-7 round takes anything away from Rafa, that's a ridiculous statement in my opinion - he fought a great fight and just came up a bit short. It might have been the best fight I have ever seen.
