Quillan is doing a number on his opponent.

can any1 pm me??

Murray is winning this at the mo. Martinez down! Amazing

77-75 Murray.

Oh god! Martinez down last round! Murray up by 2 points now

Is Martinez chinny?

ahh link any1??

87-85 Murray. All 3 had Martinez ahead after 8...

It is of course illegal for us to supply you with such information.

I have contacted you via PM to warn you privately.

I sense a hometown decision here

97-94. This might just happen!

That was a knockdown, not a slip.

I have Murray by 4/5 points now.

106-103 Murray

This is a very close fight. Should have given the second knockdown but without it its a 1 point fight IMO. Murrqay didn't do enough in 11th. Probably take it from him if he doen't win big in 12th

116-113 Surely Murray has this. Surely.

Martinez gets this IMO. Murray needed to be a little more active in last two rounds and that'll be the difference. Didn't score it myself but v close fight

Think Martinez will get the hometown decision. Otherwise a close fight- Murray wasnt hurt once in the fight.

114-113 Murray for me.

This is Murray's fight. He's winning but won't get a decision.

Martinez seems to be doing what the Argentinian army couldn't do. Beat up Brits.

Fabulously brave performance from Murray. I might have been a bit generous in scoring it 116-113 but I genuinely think Murray did enough.

115 - 112 on all cards? That's a joke.

Nice of them to all agree on 115-112. Martinez is done. Looked very poor tonight. Needs to call it a day. Junior will end up KOing him if he carries on.

GGG would slaughter all of them on the same night.

Feel like I need to watch that again. I thought Murray won, but even he doesnt!

Didn't see it in HD but for me Murray wins that.

Even in black and white Murray won.

Paulie is a class act as a colour commentator.

If Murray got given the second knockdown he would of won the fight on the cards, (most likely would become 114 - 113 in his favour) so he most defiantly was unlucky...

115-112 Murray

How did anyone not see that sound second knockdown??

Murray looked great tonight and he should not have lost.

I was expecting starts at around 3 and 4 in the morning for Martinez and Garcia but I appear to have missed Martinez, was he as bad as it sounds?

He is, best around at the moment.

Judah taking a bit of a pasting there.

Lacking power and got caught way too much

Judah had a big round 10 there, good job Garcia is made out of stern stuff.

That was a much better fight than expected, if Judah showed that kind of heart and resolve earlier in his career he could have been a great fighter.

Good fight last 3 rounds was Judah but was closer on score cards than should've been

Judah gained my respect. He started off a bit scared but he grew into the fight and won the lst 1/3 of the fight.

I thought Judah won about 4 or 5 rounds, and with the knock down I would say the judges scored the fight about right.

Judah looked really hurt earlier on, I think he was struggling with Garcia's power and looked smaller and less powerful, but I think as Garcia tired his power became better to deal with and Judah grew in confidence. Good fight and maybe a few of Garcia's flaws have been exposed.

Big problem with open scoring is that it takes the anticipation of a close result away. Even more so as the WBC guys started putting that t shirt on Martinez before the result was announced.

I had Murray up by two, it was definitely a second knockdown and the ref made a howler there. But the ref also fell for every trick that Martinez used. The low blow that wasn't, the head butt which was actually a hook and the shoulder clipped him on the chin.

Great show of heart by Judah, one I really didn't expect and he seemed to shake Garcia a few times late on.

Why is a 'foreigner'??

Being English/British is about more than where you are born, as it would be for any other nationality. It's also about your culture, your religion, your family. Now if I say any more, I'll be on rather shaky ground, so I won't.

Being a patriot and being proud of where you come fro are two different things. Learn to respect, hell, embrace diversity. A hot Belgian chick just came in to my work and i was certainly grateful for diversity.

This should be on the news boards. It is now.

Keep it boxing here.

Ah thank you for that Az, I was going to say if this debate carried on any further we should take it to the off-topic forum.
