Keep watching and go to a live event and you will have a better feel for who is winning.
Who's ignorant ass propagandist is this who just created an account to stave off the Urango nay-sayers!!! If we used your philosophy, then Muhammad Ali would NEVER have won most of his first 20 figths!!
He did the same thing Rabah did--HIT AND DON'T GET HIT. That's the part of the sport that's called Pugilism-- the sweet science...

And if that is your decision, then you are against the fans (who WERE THERE came to CHEER Urango), the commentators, and Teddy Atlas.

Let's look at the rules and see who did what

Clean Punching (25%) Rabah was landing combinations without being hit!
Effective Aggression (25%) Urango was the aggressor, but far from effective
Ring Generalship (25%) Who controlled the fight? It looked desperate and hopeless for Urango as it got later. Granted, Ben Rabah began to punch less in the later rounds...

Defense (25%) clearly Ben Rabah

Now tell me what you saw that gave Urango the fight!?!?!?
