... Daniel Roman did well... but not enough...

Daniel Roman did more than enough to not only win but unanimously. Hearn has his judges like all promoters but this time they robbed a champion of 2 belts he put on the line! Disgraceful!!

A good fight again overshadowed by the corruption of hidden agenda. Wish all the B.S. was left at the podium. Shouldn't dish it out after these kids lay their heart and soul out between the 4 corners. Shamefull!

... Phil Lynott, dear... I always thought that one should clearly dominate the champion in order to win the belt(s)... the Uzbek didn't do that... even CompuBox said that... *they should have scored it a draw)...

Agree. If it was not a title fight I could accept a draw. I would still feel Roman deserved the win. However it was a title fight and the champ took the fight to his challenger. BTW watching Roman's head movement while keeping right in front of Akm... Like on a frozen rope and scoring in between, was a thing of beauty..

Roman fought well but let the fight slip away in the 10th and 11th in my opinion.

Wouldn't mind seeing a rematch.

... imo, Roman should have put some more heart in this fight... the Uzbek did put...

I think his heart was there. It just is his style. Looks to me he's thinking and calculating the whole time. Which is a good thing. All in all I like the kid and a little bias. Nothing against Uzbek. He really impressed me but not enough to dethrone the champion.

The right man got the decision and I bet on Roman. Roman is good coming forward but not so good backing up.
