I guess I don't understand boxing because I thought Arreola totally dominated this fight, and I was rooting for Adamek. It seemed to me Arreola won 7-5 round-wise, and that's being genorous to Adamek. Adamek only started looking like the better fighter around the 7th round, by then it looked like Arreola had already done enough, and then Arreola came forward and kicked his ass some more in Round 10.
Granted Arreola was hurting bad and obviously tired (out of shape) towards the end. Adamek is a tough mofo...I was a little surprised he wasn't trying to knock Arreola out in the end, but then I didn't know (and Adamek did know) that Adamek was ahead on points.
But I just don't understand how Adamek won the decision. Are they counting all those low blows as landed punches? I guess maybe Adamek was landing more weak jabs then I counted....and maybe all those body jabs just added up. If Arreola is prepared to concede it then fine I guess.
