I thought HBO and Lederman were way off. They get worse every fight, it seems. 116-112 for Diaz seemed like a very good score to me. Diaz clearly won, but Kats took more than two rounds. In defense of the judges, I guess I can see 115-113 Diaz, but that's pushing it. Glen Hamada must have been stoned to score it 115-113 for Kats. 118-110 from Lederman was almost as stupid as 115-113 for Kats.

The split decision is poetic justice for Diaz. Campbell was robbed of a UD in the last fight, in which he beat Diaz just as thoroughly as Diaz beat Kats in this one.
