115-113: Totally agree
116-112: Borderline agree, but a somewhat surprising score
118-110: Absolutely atrocious
It was a good fight nonetheless. Enjoyed watching it.
I like Malignaggi, but his post-fight rant was way too much. Yes, he was up against it (Diaz' hometown, Texas judges, etc.), but to whine and complain like he did was classless. If he can't handle it, find another job.

I think his rant was completely justified. He is a boxer, not a UN delegate. The fact was despite his camps attempts to get a fair fight prior to the fight by casting a spotlight on the judges, he did not get one. While I understand that boxing has no central authority, the two judges that had the fight scored lopsided despite the obvious scrutiny on them should be eliminated as judges.
