That's pretty much it.

In a way I dislike this decision for Paul's sake. He's such a warrior. Not a smart fighter. Clueless trainer. But he's what's right about boxing in a sense and bad decisions almost always result in a backlash against the fighter who received that decision and Paul doesn't deserve that.
That's absolutely true. I know that I, especially if there is a rematch, will be cheering against Paul Williams and hoping he loses in such a one-sided way that it makes robbery impossible or the scorecards moot. And that's not really fair because he's a great fighter with a great attitude (even if his post-fight interview pissed me off).
