Thing is i keep hearing how Matthysse was robbed twice, and that isn't the case. The Judah fight was razor thin close and could of gone either, i agree with everyone else on the Alexander fight there's no way Alexander won that or was even close to winning it, but then again i thought Kotelnik was robbed vs Alexander aswell so go figure.
He wasn't robbed in either fight in my opinion. He lost close controversial decisions. Controversial in the sense that many people thought he won both fights. I agree with you that I had Matthysse winning by a number of rounds in the Alexander fight. I also agree that the Judah fight was closer. I had Matthysse by a round or two, but your scorecard is very fair. I'll have to rewatch it.
