Official highlights
The fight was close, I can’t believe the stupid judging. I think the decision went to the right guy, but not with such a huge margin. The slight boos from the crowd after the decision was announced were justified
Anyway, nice movement from Orozco, good bout :) Soto still going strong after more than 70 bouts, it is very impressive, and I’d like to see him against other young guns anytime.
Oddly I had it even at the 10th.
And gave Sotto the 10th on cleaner punches. And yes WTF was the scoring about.
I iterate – judges and commentators need to watch the TV feed
so that can see entire fight and not 1 side. Like the point deduction.
He had been warned twice for lo blows …
less Orozco finds more power I don’t see him
beating the cream.
I watched it in Quebecer french, and the commentators were pretty agreeable to the point deduction. I agree Orozco needs to up his game a bit, but this 35 year old Soto was a great opponent in my opinion. :)
I gotta say, that it was a very tight fight, no one deserve to lose (draw), as a matter a fact, I saw Soto won because he shot most of the power punches , but in this case the judges F..K the score cards as always, Yo! young boxer undefeated (means $)!
