Seems like often the scores are just made up so one fighter doesn't get embarassed, I don't remember Hamed doing much except eating shots all night in that fight.

I must say, it was a humiliation, you could see how humiliated Hamed felt during the fight, especially when he was bent over rammed into the turnbuckle and basically treated like the jail-bunk bitch by Barrera.
That's where I disagree with you. I agree the scoring was too close but there were quite a few utterly 'nothing' rounds which really could have been scored either way, when Barerra as I said previously was showing plenty of respect to Hamed's power.

There were some quiet rounds, but Hamed was landing little or nothing
in those quiet ones, whereas Barrera was landing in pretty much every
round. I haven't seen it in ages, must get it on video.
