Judges Tim Cheetham, Dave Moretti and Steve Weisfeld not only scored 115-113 equally in favor of the WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol against Canelo Alvarez last Saturday in Las Vegas, but equally appreciated each of the twelve rounds.
Canelo won the first four rounds and the ninth round on scorecards from all three judges. Bivol took rounds five through eight and ten through twelfth. Going into the final round, Bivol led 105-104 on all three maps and needed to win the twelfth round to avoid a draw.
