He was the aggressor... He landed many more punchers and harder punches... He chased DeGale all over the ring and beat him up badly.

Kalan you hit the nail on the head 115/111 :TU: what about if Jack doesn't get the knockdown in round 12 De Gale wins a un dec :verysad: gets busted up out punched 90 punch's or 60 depending on who you believe over the course of the fight gets his teeth knocked out just for good measure fight's ineffective on the back-foot for the majority of the fight gets hit with the much much cleaner punch's and generally beat up but he's in front going into the 12 and final round :witzend:

That's exactly right... The judges scored the fight so DeGale would win if he lost the last round 10-9... He lost 10-8 and should have lost the damned fight regardless of whether Jack scored a umch more solid knockdown than DeGale scored. The result was rigged.

Here's the problem with Boxing and why it's not a main stream sport...

You get tons of mismatches -- and then you finally get a great match-up like this particular fight -- which I figured could be a FOTY type fight because it's such a good match-up... But then a great fight and very hard fought fight, is spoiled by a robbery.
