Tonights Fights (Sat 25th June)

[Mars_ax]

Fightnews had Alexander winning too. I just didn't see that at all. One guy was getting busted up repeatedly and being hit with the cleaner more effective punches. No way did Alexander win the majority of the rounds. It was a robbery because it wasn't even that close.

Boxing - Alexander edges Matthysse

Unlike most close fights I though 9 rounds here were pretty clear.

2,3,5,6,9 for Alexander and 4, 7,8,10 for Matthysse.

Round one was the close one and in my view, one's view of it probably decided the fight.

The thing is Matthysse was more dominant in the rounds he won than Alexander was in the rounds he won, but that almost never matters unless there is a knockdown (like in round 4 tonight). I actually did think about giving Matthysse a 10-8 round in either 7 or 8 (I forget which) but I decided not to.

Here ya go Marble:

Watching card for 1st time on replay rying to avoid results

How in the hell does Ray austin find himself in another "title" fight? And what sort of incriminating info does he have on someone...photos or documentation

Walked into result on FB but 9 rounds in there is nothing Devon has done to state he earned this except last and pepper up points with little effect. He is being moved at every turn and cleary being outpunched and out fought to me. Oh looky...Don King, wow.

I watched fornthe second time with the sound off.

Rounds 2, 5, 6, and 9 clearly to Alexander.

Rounds 4, 7, 8 and 10 to Matthysse.

The fight hangs on how you saw rounds 1 and 3. I had, both times, Alexander winning both. But two close Very close rounds therenn

This FNF was scheduled to be on in UK but was not for some reason. I thought there may have been a fatality which is why they did not show the repeat but from the commentary of this post it looked like a stoppage.

The fight seemed pretty close to me i don't think that i could call it robbery. I think people throw that word around a lot when a close fight does not go the way they wanted it to go last night not a robbery. I think maybe if they were to rematch that would clear things up.
