Abril actually got that round thanks to finally landing some clean punches with good boxing but the point deduction makes it even

6-1-1 Bogere

78-74 Bogere.
Please, please, end!

Abril takes the 9th, Bogere looking a bit tired, fight starting to resemble Rios bout with Bogere throwing arm punches but Abril landed a bit cleaner.

6-2-1 Bogere

87-84 Bogere.

Bogere comes more aggressively in the 10th but still getting pot-shotted a bit. I give Abril the edge in the 10th

6-3-1 Bogere

96-94 Bogere.
May Tony Hernandez is enjoying this, but I sure as hell am not.
Did Kenny call this "excellent"?

11th another ugly round. Abril trying to set up the rear-naked choke as Bogere actually moves his hands

I bet Paulie would like that.

Ref takes point from Bogere for leading with his head.

106-104 Bogere.

I'm not giving Abril credit for that disgusting 12th round. Even round.

7-3-2 Bogere

114-114 for me.
Glad point deductions won't decide it.

So Abril gets a gift.

Jesus, that was awful, I hope Broner beats the tar out of this bum

Scoring:
115-111, 116-110 x2
Abril UD
I'd have no prob with 114-112, but that was waaaaaaaaay too wide (6 points).
2 point fight either way.

SOB, UD or SD?

The make up for previous bad decision never fails.

"Richar" is one of the pussiest fighters I've ever seen.

The win wasn't a gift; that fight could've gone either way.
The margin was far too wide, though.

UD.

Broner KO7 Abril, bet on that

I thought Abril clearly won, and in my opinion those who believe that he received a gift are biased against him due to his ugly style.

115-111

115-111

I didn't think it was a gift, and I agree that DW's 4-point margin for Bogere was too wide, as was the 6-point score for Abril. I also think 4 was too wide; a couple points either way for me. Had it a draw, and I'd have had no beef had either guy won a close decision.
