[Sportofkings]

The only time I scored it I had it 115-111 for Castillo, no doubt I could score it again and have it closer, still a clear Castillo victory though.

I watched Duran vs Barkley last night, had it 114--113 for Duran.

[jezzamundo]

I also had Castillo beating Mayweather 115-111 in their first fight. It was competitive, but for me a clear win to Castillo and a robbery.

For the Pac-Marquez trilogy I had it:

1st fight: Pacquiao 114-111
2nd fight: Pacquiao 114-113
3rd fight: Marquez 115-113

I also had Mayweather beating Judah 116-112, but I could see 115-113, either way closer than the judges had it but a clear Mayweather win. Factor in that had Judah been awarded the knockdown (as he should have) it would have been 115-112 or possibly 114-113, which only makes the Pacquiao matchup more intriguing seeing as he has everything Judah has, plus a chin and a heart.

I have identical scores to you for the Pac-JMM trilogy except I had the rubber match wider at 116-112 for JMM. While the first two bouts were close and competitive, and I think the 2nd could've gone for either guy without much controversey; I think the 3rd was a completly different fight . . .not as entertaining and not nearly as nip and tuck.

I recently watched EMM v Galindez and had Galindez the solid winner at 9-6 with a KD for Galindez; I don't think it was as close as Dundee and Clancy asserted (nor as good a fight as they were saying either . . Eddie Mustafa was in his usual "I'll stare at you and throw occasional pot-shots" mode)

[SaadOffTheDeck]

I had Gregory winning that one, but haven't watched it in a long time.

The Pac/JMM fights

Marquez 114-111
Pacquiao 114-113
Marquez 116-112

Holmes 144-141 over Norton
Whitaker 116-110 over DLH
Mayweather/Castillo I had a draw.

[Goodnight, Irene]

They robbed Marquez in that last bout, no question.

That said, while in some ways deserved, a draw in the initial fight was mathematically generous to Marquez, IMO.

[Goodnight, Irene]

Hey, Im a Marquez guy. I huffed and puffed after the last battle, and rightly so, but I dont see how he wound up even in the first match.

Nor did Pacquiao win the last outing. Terrible call.

[SaadOffTheDeck]

I thought Marquez was dominant over the majority of the last ten rounds in the first fight. I had no issue with the draw.

DD, totally abused in the last one. Manny didn't have one definitive round.

[IRLangmaid25]

Here are some more at random

Juanma Lopez v Orlando Salido 1 had it 66-66 after 7 rounds prior to the stoppage
Roy Jones v Clinton Woods 49-46 Jones after 5 prior to the stoppage
Robert Helenius v Derek Chisora 117-111 Chisora.
Toshiaki Nishioka v Rafa Marquez 117-11 Nishioka
Pacquiao Marquez 3 115-113 Pacquiao
Amir Khan v Lamont Peterson 113-112 Khan
Miguel Cotto v Antonio Margarito 2 88-83 Cotto prior to the stoppage at the end of the 9th round.

[Seamus]

Some comments on the fights I watched over the weekend. Eubank showed tremendous poise v Benn. He took back 2 or 3 rds after getting nailed by Benn early in the rounds. Benn also gave a good performance, but pretty much gave away the fight with his lack of activity in the first 3 rds. Even lafter that however he seemed to have trouble sustaining his attacks and fought in spurts.

There were similarities with Calzaghe v Reid, with the latter doing very little over the first 4 rds, which on my scorecard ended up being the difference.

Which round did you score for Woods?

2nd.

[crusader]

I thought Jones won that round beyond dispute, but hey, that's subjectivity.

Woods definitely gave it a go.

Benn also gave a good performance, but pretty much gave away the fight with his lack of activity in the first 3 rds.

Interesting difference of opinion.

I thought Benn won clear but close.

Benn had been undone by hurting opponents and going all out. He knew Chris could take a hammering and come back again. So he held off emptying the tank. Knowing he had to see the final bell to win.

Eubank got the best end of a number of iffy decisions…pretty much always debatable, but always in his favour.

[Seamus]

What iffy decisions did Eubank get in your opinion Ezzard ? By the way, Benn's pacing himself to go 12 rds is precisely why I think he lost on my card.

[klompton]

I think people could argue with Eubank-Close, Benn 2, and Thornton. I dont think he lost those, and frankly I think Thornton had a better argument than Benn or Close, but people will sometimes say that Eubank was on the lucky end of those decisions. That being said, Eubank was on the wrong end of some close ones as well so its not like he always got the decision. I thought he beat Thompson, and Collins. Others have said the Calzaghe fight was close which I dont agree with. Calzaghe was the only guy who really BEAT Eubank IMO. Eubank was a shell in that fight (likely due to making weight, and age).

The problem with Eubank, and the reason why some have a problem with some of his decisions, was that he fought up or down to the level of competition and only fought as hard as you made him. So when he was in control, he just didnt really go to town on a guy like he was fully capable of doing and as a result the other guy often looked better or more competitive than he actually was, simply because Eubank chose to stay one step ahead instead three or four.

When someone really pushed Eubank he showed that he could kick it into a special gear and that really brought out the fighter in him.

Hes easily one of the best to ever come out of the UK IMO.

[LeedsLad]

I feel that Marquez was a relatively clear winner in the second fight against Pac, though Manny did well to make it a competitive fight.

The third was one-sided, an absolutely awful decision. At the end, Pac knew he was beaten. That's all there is to it.

[klompton]

One sided??? GTFO!

Is this Duane Ford speaking?

[Goodnight, Irene]

It wasnt one-sided, but I liken it to De La Hoya-Mosley I --- it was a competitive, tough battle --- but one guy (Mosley) clearly won, in the 7-5, 8-4 vicinity.

Pacquiao made Marquez work and work hard...but he did not win that last fight.

[klompton]

I had Pac winning all three fights with, oddly enough, the first fight being the closest. I think Pac, like a lot of fighters, tends to get dinged by the fans when someone is able to blunt his aggression regardless of how well he is doing. I dont have a problem with anyone saying that any of those fights could have gone either way but to sit here and say any of them was one sided is absurd.

[Goodnight, Irene]

Agree that none were one-sided, but to my eyes, Pacquiao clearly won the first bout, and Marquez clearly took the last.

The second was a totally touch-and-go affair, in which I had Dinamita edging Pacman out by a solitary point (through two scorings).

[Borinken25]

I have to agree with klompton here. For me the first fight Marquez won more rounds than Pac but as a result of the knockdowns I score the fight for Pac. The second and the third I score for Pac both fights very close. Very competitive rounds but I saw Pac win those fights. Of course, I don't think neither Pac nor Marquez dominated any of the fights with the exception of the first fight in which I saw Marquez win more rounds than Pac. I actually think that Pac did better on the second and third fight based on rounds that he won. I think Pac has won all three fights by the slightest of margins.

For DLH/Mosley I score the first fight for Mosley but the second I score a clear DLH decision. I think DLH should have won clearly the second fight.

Sturm/DLH I score a clear Sturm decision.
