Sturm vs Macklin

[killersheep]

I have to think if Sturm put them together earlier he could have at least got a knockdown.
Overall very good fight, high volume constant action


Judges

115-113 Macklin

116-112 Sturm

116-112 Sturm

Well they robbed him proper like.

Felix Sturm SD. Feel bad for Macklin, he worked hard for 3 minutes every round.

116-112 Sturm once is joke, 116-112 Sturm twice, I'm not sure I have any words to describe it- does anyone get a decision in Germany? Don't get me wrong I expected it to go to Sturm with it being close but they could at least look as if they scored Macklin too...

David Haye got a decision in Germany

I wouldn't worry about it too much, Sturm will stay in Germany and be fed hot garbage for the next year until he's ready to do this return to America thing.

And to be fair there were a lot of swing rounds, but I think aside from the 12th Macklin took the last half of the fight.

Went like this to me in my interpretation

Macklin rounds 1-2 clearly

Swing rounds 3-5

Macklin round 6-11 clearly

Sturm round 12 on the barrage.

Max swing on the cards I could accept would be 115-113 Macklin through 119-109 Macklin (although you know that won't happen in Sturm's hometown)

Also sounds like they will be setting up a rematch.
