He definitely gave away the 11th, but I thought he won the 12th with better shots while Sergio was doing his pitter patter shyt.

No surprise though.

that no call on the knockdown was big:wow:
Murray hurt himself though...

He had the fight and took his foot off the gas in the championship rounds...

There is no way Sergio won this fight though, dude was completely ineffective from rounds 5-10 and hit the canvas...

I could see a draw but fukk no a win for Sergio...

Granted, I didn't watch the entire fight. But from I saw, if Sergio ever fought Golovkin he'd lose pretty convincingly. And that makes me sad.

Sergio looked bad, not very mobile, and let a crude-ish guy into the fight

I had Murray by 1 point but I was judging it very loosely in case there were shenangians.. realistically Martinez won by 1 or 2 points on my tighter card


:bow: @ his 11th and 12th rounds, that's why he's the champion

Disappointing fight from Martinez. Looked slow and unprepared. Murray was timing him well in the 2nd half & it was as if Sergio didn't figure it out til the 11th.

I'm tight they had to give it to him because he was in Argentina. I think Lederman's card was accurate...tied after 11.

I think Martinez eventually bounces back IMO.

Slow ring conditions due to the rain, coming off knee surgery, fighting against a bigger guy who hit him with headbutts and had him bleeding, everything was against him and he still won.

In better conditions and with some rest he can come back.
