    Here is my analysis/opinion of each round for what I saw (I have watched it twice).

    Clear Lara rounds - 1,3,7,9,11 - so 5 rounds
    Clear Williams rounds - 4,5,10 - so 3 rounds
    Close rounds where I can see an argument for either - 2,6,8,12 - so 4 rounds

    If you score all 4 closeish/pick em rounds to Williams you can have him winning the fight. As he was the one throwing a ton of punches I can see how the decision happened the way it did (in terms of the outcome; the 116-114 card is wrong). It is cheeky to score all the close rounds to 1 fighter but still there it is, I cant say its a robbery cos of that fact. The closer rounds were the old argument of clean punches vs workrate.

    1st viewing I had it 115-113 Lara and 2nd viewing 116-112 Lara (I scored the 8th round differently is all the difference was).

    I think Williams was very lucky to get the decision but ive seen much worse. I think the commentary was extremely bias. Every shot Lara lands was made a big deal of but Williams did a lot of work when Lara took time off and did things like land a bunch of body shots up close and they didnt say anything about it etc.

    Judges scorecards are on fightnews. 2 of your clear Lara rounds: Round 3- 2 judges scored for PW; round 11-2 judges scored for PW. The same judges each time.
