I thought that was the case listening to the Brit commentators scoring.


How far ahead did the HBO guys have Mosley?
Several rounds. Lampley said it was a travesty that one judge had Mayorga up by a point and one had Mosely up by only a point and Merchant agreed with him.

Personally I thought it was a VERY close fight that depending on who won the 12th round could have gone either way. Had Mayorga got a big 12th round I wouldn't have had a problem if the judges had gone for him, although a close win for Shane would have been cool with me too.

But nobody can convince me that Shane was comfortably ahead in this fight, he pulled it out of the fire imo, great win and Mayorga fought out of his skin.

I don't think it was a bad performance from Shane I just think he struggled against a much bigger, and very focused and dangerous Mayorga.
A TRAVESTY the judges had it close? Blimey, no wonder people cry robbery after every fight

It was close going into the 12th. That's proven by the split between the bulk of fans.
