Jones vs. Soto-Karass what's your verdict?

[CutMeMick]

So how did you score the fight?
Or even if you didn't score it round by round what did you think of the outcome?

I had Soto-Karass wining it by 2 rounds. (6 rounds to 4 for Soto)
I thought Soto was the aggressive fighter the one looking for the fight and the one dictating the rounds.
Jones fought going backwards and on the defensive side in a handful of rounds.
He looked gassed and tired through the whole fight after the early onslaught.

I'm not crying out a robbery because I can see how some people will see some rounds being close. But for me when you break down each round and pay attention to the things I mentioned above Soto takes the fight.

Through the haze I believe I had Soto Karass by 3,4 points. One word....body-language. Jones could not sustain attack and was sloppy. Soto-Karass's face was falling apart but his attack and tempo made the fight. Personally I think he was a bit shafted vs Gomez as he was coming on and Gomez opted out. Helluva entertaining fighter and hope he gets another tv date....how about a rematch?

Yeah didn't do a round by round but 6-4 for karass sounds about right,, but knew he wasn't getting the decision. Rematch jones I think takes him, he just fucked himself in the second round, he went all out and was tiered for pretty much the rest of the fight but got a gift so he better learn from the experience.

I just couldn't believe how tired Jones got after throwing so many punches in the 2nd. it was a good fight though.

I had Jones by a point as I scored the 2nd round a 10-8 round because I felt the ropes were all that was keeping JSK up. It was close though & I can see a win either way. I've got to say that the 97-93 scorecard was a disgrace imo. I also think this fight stands Jones in good stead & might just be the making of him, as I was unconvinced by him previously. I also agree with Spicoli about the Gomez fight, he definitely found a way out with JSK coming on.

Well I have a full rbr with my logic on there on the super thread. I put less emphasis on body language and more on clean effective punching. I had Jones ahead by quite a bit 97-93 some may call it a disgrace, and I can certainly understand scoring it for Karass. BUT Jones was still outlanding and cutting up Karass's face even while he was exhausted.
