Geale was Robbed!

Posted by angryfightfan on June 2, 2009

I rewatched the controversial Mundine-Geale fight of last Wednesday earlier today in peace and quiet without the biased commentary team in my ear or a bunch of drunk morons shouting shit like ‘farrrrken killllllimmmm!’ The result, a fairly one sided scorecard for Daniel Geale. I still think a lot of the rounds were close, but I still think Geale was the aggressor for the entire fight, as well as landing the cleaner punches and doing the better job of blocking punches out of the two of them. It really is a different fight to watch without the moronic ramblings of Barry Michael and Andy Raymond (and to a much lesser extent Paul Upham). I suggest it to everyone who has an interest in this fight to rewatch the fight with no sound and to write each round score on a different sheet of paper and then fold it up and tally your scorecard up at the end of the fight and see how it comes out. Here is how I scored the fight:

Now there’s a couple of rounds that could swing either way, but I really find it hard to score that fight for Mundine. Geale basically outworked him and outpunched him for the majority of the 12 rounds and while Mundine had his moments, they were smothered in Geale’s workrate throughout the entire fight. If there’s a round you disagree with me on, please feel free to flame me in the comments section and I’ll be more then happy to respond and if you hate my scoring that much please post it on a message board somewhere, I could do with the extra viewers.
