The fight, the decision or both?
I don't think the decision was awful in terms of Abril's having won, but the margin was too wide.
The fight was indeed awful.

Yeah both, it was overall a close fight but Abril simply existing at the top level is every bit as frustrating as the multitude of other safety first stinkers we've seen over the years like Ruiz, Cory Spinks, Sergio Mora, etc guys who suck ass at offense and just try to make their opponents looks shittier than they are to win by default

He was a beltholder. Lewis was champ. Glad Ruiz got pounded by the Davids, though I didn't mourn when he beat Fast Fres.

I think DW's called Lee "Public enemy No. 1."

I think DW detests Lee more, but it's close.

Mike Lee makes me want to punch the people at Subway who make the sandwiches, that's how much I dislike him.

As for Abril-Vazquez I actually think that would make for a watchable fight because when you have two guys dedicated to the same task their skill sets frequently cancel each other out and it devolves into more action than they'd otherwise give anyone else. I'd take Vazquez in that one

I wonder how Evander scored this fight. Specifically, did he factor in the two point deductions that the judges were required to take into account, did he only count one of them, or did he count neither?
