Rocky ans Sakio

[colin russell]

To our two Aussie boxers fighting in the US this weekend, l for one wish the both of you all the best hes hopeing for a big win. If only the two of you could bring it home what a great day for boxing in Australia. l do think both can and should win by KO.

I thought he won four rounds. The scores were too wide, and Ward was allowed to get away with his dirty tactics again. If he fights outside of Oakland, where the refs won't be so nice to him, he will have some problems.

Apparently it was dodgy decision with most scoring it a very close fight

Yes, it was a close fight. I had it 116-112 Ward. Many of the rounds I gave to him were close as well. He was bleeding and getting hit far more than he did against Kessler or Green. Ward did rightfully get the decision, but the scores were too wide. Typical display of dirty boxing from him.

there you go ! thanks guys, hometown advantage hey ?

I'm still keen to know why they didn't make Ward fight in Europe against Kessler, since the rest of his bouts were going to be in the US, because he is filthy and gets away with it far too easy.

Allan Green- Replaced Jermain Taylor
Sakio - Direll fight replacement

Something smells fishy Showtime.......

the Showtime facebook page was getting a lot of messages about why he was getting away with all his filthy tactics.
