Live boxing: Flyweight division, Serugo falls

RESULT 11.45pm

"This was a split decision, and I personally had it the other way. I thought Serugo’s energy and punch output bossed the second and third rounds, but two of three judges did not agree" - @badlefthook 

Narek Abgaryan (#ARM) wins a controversial decision over Ronald Serugo (#UGA) to advance to round of 16.

I thought Serugo won the third rd on sheer workrate and some nice ri. hands. Abgarayan gets split decision. Crowd boos.

Serugo punching almost non-stop in 2nd, 3rd, rds; great energy.

Scorecards are 20-18 #UGA, 20-18 #ARM and 19-19 heading to the third. Crowd is singing Ronald Serugo's last name.
