I have just watched the Patterson v. Bonavena fight. Unfortunately the reading of the scorecards is not audible. Can anyone help with the scoring?

the only thing I recall about the scoring is that patterson won a close one.Don't remember if it was split or not.Also, at the time I thought "this is the first time Flloyd won one that probably should have gone the other way. Usually, he was on the wrong end of close decisions. Won't say Bonanvena was robbed; I just thought he had the edge.

Shame this information comes 11 years too late, but it was a unanimous decision: 5-4-1, 6-4 and 7-2-1, all for Patterson.

The Associated Press made it 6-4 to Bonavena though and said that their poll of other ringside reporters produced a 5-4 majority for Bonavena.
