You can argue semantics all you like. I think it was a robbery.
A close fight that could have gone either way by it's very definition is not a robbery. It has nothing to do with arguing semantics.
I thought it was a competitive fight, but with competent judging I can't really see how it could have gone either way.

Paullie won that fight for sure, he simply won more rounds. It's only the appalling standards of boxing judging generally that allows for conjecture and subjective opinion when the fight is not a landslide win for one guy.

I'm very suprised that anyone totalling up the rounds and scoring professionally could give that fight to Juan, who I thought was pretty badly exposed in that fight, against a non puncher who fought at a catchweight for him and came in dehydrated.

Diaz is finished as a top level fighter, but hopefully Paullie will get another shot at a big name in the future.
