WHAT:\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0A day before their highly anticipated rematch, SHOWTIME Sports\u00a0\u00a0\u00ae\u00a0\u00a0has released highlights from the July 20 first matchup in Iowa of what many have called one of the most widely disputed fights of 2018.<\/p>\n

Cleveland lightweight contender\u00a0\u00a0Thomas Mattice\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0(13-0, 10 KOs) survived a second-round knockdown and was awarded the split decision over Armenian and Los Angeles-based\u00a0Zhora Hamazaryan\u00a0<\/strong>(9-1, 6 KOs). Mattice connected on 57 of 178 power punches during the fight, compared to Hamazaryan’s connecting on 100 of 346.<\/p>\n

Two judges scored the fight 76-75 in favor of Mattice with the third judge scoring it 77-74 in favor of Hamazaryan.<\/p>\n

“He didn’t win the fight,”\u00a0ShoBox\u00a0analyst and boxing historian Steve Farhood said after the scores were read in favor of Mattice. “That’s all I can say. Scoring is subjective, I understand that and say that quite a bit, but it was a bad decision.”<\/p>\n

This Friday’s\u00a0ShoBox\u00a0telecast is headlined by top undefeated lightweight prospect\u00a0Devin Haney<\/strong>\u00a0(19-0, 13 KOs) facing three-time world title challenger\u00a0Juan Carlos Burgos<\/strong>\u00a0(33-2-2, 21 KOs). The opener will see\u00a0\u00a0two undefeated middleweight prospects meet as\u00a0Cem Kilic<\/strong>\u00a0(11-0, 7 KOs) and\u00a0DeAnde Ware\u00a0<\/strong>(12-0-2, 8 KOs) face off in the ninth matchup of undefeated prospects of 2018 on\u00a0ShoBox: The New Generation.<\/p>\n
