Really, ARD thought he was robbed too? Fair enough then...I thought Huck would win on points, so maybe just saw what I expected to happen.
I've been watching German boxing for so long now, I always expect to see the home towner do just enough to win, or just enough not to allow the other guy to rip if off him, that a decision like tonight is run of the mill. I must have become indoctrinated into the programme!

Abraham seemed to have a lot to say after the fight.
I wonder if it's about the rumours he is pulling out of the Super Six.

As has already been said, it's interesting how subjective scoring a fight is. I certainly didn't see one man dominating the other, as some apparently did.
I thought it was a really tough fight to score, and a strangely subdued affair. Here we were, expecting fireworks, multiple knock-downs, a KO...But I felt both fighters were very wary of the other's power.
I had it 116-116 in the end. Sure, Lebedev was coming forward for most of the fight, but I thought was only effective in patches, with most of his shots being blocked: it wasn't *effective* aggression for much of the time. I did have even rounds, though, and for those who don't like scoring rounds even, I can see how a case could have been made for giiving the decision to either fighter. I certainly didn't think it was a robbery, and bear in mind the two cards for Huck were tight.

Watched this fight yesterday, to see it wasn''t the fight I was expecting is a massive understatement.
Huck turned into Sven Ottke for 12 rounds, sh!t fight, sh!t decision IMO
