Real tight fight between Al and McGovern. Draw was probably fair.
Re: BTW Season Week #19 World Championship fights
We have a new IBF Champion, and even bigger we have a new WBC, WBA and Lonsdale Champion. Herman was slightly ahead on the cards, and looked to be doing his thing as usual until Jofre connected with that jaw breaking shot in the 8th to take the belts.
3 Really good Championship fights this week.

Tough loss for Herman. Rather loss clearly, but freak accidents happen. One of the better streaks of recent Sim memory ends, but I'm sure Herman will be back.
The Escobar/Barry was just horrible to read......
