Muhammad Ali vs Rudi Lubbers ~ Round 12 'A War'

[Controversial]

Wouldn't it be easier to just post a link to the fight on YouTube?

[BoxBuzz]

When reading Il Duce's commentary, he will courteously invite you to take his word over your own lyin' eyes.

I had to ignore what my own eyes were telling me when Ali was dropped by a thundering shot from Wepner. My eyes tried to convince me that Ali's foot had been stepped on, which seemingly caused the event.

Fortunately We have the Ol' Doocheroo to set us straight when photographic equipment and our eyes get lazy and let us down.

You are clearly just a troll. You're going against your own words now. You're saying coming to Round 12 Ali vs Lubbers was "even"...in your own words in the other Ali vs Rudi Lubbers thread you created, I seem to recall you saying you saw the fight 9 rounds to 3 for Ali.

Do the math there genius. That's not even. Even on your clearly bias scorecard.

Meanwhile in the real world. It was 12-0 and 11-1 on the judges scorecards. Why you need to build up Rudi Lubbers like he was something that he just wasn't is baffling to me.

Rudi Lubbers,

Did not lose every Round.

The 'first' real good Round that Muhammad Ali had was Round 7..........

I had it 9-1-2 in Rounds, but Rudi was 'competitive', for what he brought to the table.

Don't you think.........

This is Il Duce's post from the Rudi Lubbers 'I Could have Defeated George Foreman' thread.

But now he's changing his tune to it was an even fight going into the 12th. Just a few short months ago, he saw it 9-1-2 for Ali....I wonder what changed?
