Round 1

Feeling each other out really, not a lot landing, Griffin doing more work, Sturm complained about the head at one point, so after listening to that the ref warned Griffin! Can see the American is gonna find it hard to get the decision, but I had him edging the round
Griffin 10-9

Griffin is coming forward more now and Sturm looks better with his opponent in front of him
He is tending to puch first and get them off better now.
Griffin is coming back into it in the last minute and they are both letting fly, warming up nicely
Sturm has taken this one for me in another close round
Griffin 29-28

Sturm is getting off well with solid jabs now, he looks much better when he is positive and first to the punch
The jab is working nicely for him
Griffin was warned for absolutely nothing but is trying to land single shots rather than combinations now
Sturm levels it 38-38

Sturm has taken his foot of the gas a bit and Griffin is rolling in well landing solid hooks, he is putting his combinations together again now
The Panamanian ref is on the Americans case a bit, usually at Sturms request
Griffin's round
48-47

They both look to be tiring a bit, but are standing toe to toe and slugging it out a bit, i'm enjoying this, Sturm needs to utilise his jab again
Another close one but for me Griffin was doing a bit more and the more effective work at close quarters
Griffin 67-66

Sturm is forcing Griffin back now and the American work rate has dropped, back to single shots, has taken the round off really
Griffin has another unnecessary warning but lost the round clearly
76-76

Griffin's right eye is looking puffy too, a lot of the fight has been at close quarters and heads have rubbed a bit

Sturm has is jab working well again but Griffin is making a big effort to stay in it, getting his combinations well, but they are not landing flush
Good fight, wholehearted effort by both, nothing in this one and unfortunately i'm scoring it even
86-86

Good mix of styles, Griffins work and hooks v Sturms better quality and straight punches
Sturms quality for me in this round
Griffins corner are telling him that he can't let it be a close fight and needs to win big
Sturm 96-95

Sturm is the one landing the shots cleanly and is winning this round clearly, Griffin is staying with him but is repeatedly missing while getting tagged
Sturm raises his arms to the crowd as he walks back to the corner
Sturm 106-104
