Papin had Makabu on Queer Street at the end of 12.
Makabu majority decision. They got the decision right.

Makabu wins by MD .... 113-113, 115-113, 115-113 ... the KD made the difference. Yep, they got the decision right.

Russians are too honest. That decision would have never happened in New York or Las Vegas.

So close to a robbery. Makabu should have a wider score for him.

How did you score it then? I thought Makabu by 2 or 3 was about right.

Enter the eternal crybaby.
They got the decision right. It was not as close as it was scored, but there were a few very close rounds.

Yh. Rounds 11, 12 could have easily gone to Papin. He didn’t do too bad.

If it was Las Vegas it would have been 10-0 for the American fighter. And speaking of robberies like that it's pretty ironic that they have Ward announcing a Kovalev fight!

The experience advantage prevailed .... Makabu is the ultimate "body snatcher", landing solid punches to the midsection throughout,

Well, I gave Papin first 3 rounds for sure. There were a couple of close rounds somewhere around the 8th or the 9th. So, the 115-112 score must be the best score for Papin, yes. But one judge had a draw, that's absolutely unfair.

Tell me when you ever saw a fair decision for a Russian or eastern European fighter in the US, especially the two cities I named, especially Mafia Vegas.

I'm amazed the Russian got the decision. I didn't score it but fairly close fight.
Edit: Meant the other guy.

Wow can ESPN butcher Kovalev any worse here? Keep showing Wards moments mostly 2nd fight highlights, ignoring most of the first fight, going on about his personal issues etc..I know they gotta fill time here but I mean Jesus.....ok boys you proved your point 30 minutes ago, kovalevs a bad guy, we get it...I like Bradley but he's going overboard and Andre Ward acting like the greatest ever...

Anthony Yarde enters the ring. He looks relaxed and having fun.
"The Krusher" enters to Russian music, he's smiling. It's a packed house in attendance.
