Potapov Promoter: We were robbed, appeal Greer's decision win forthcoming!

Joshua Greer Jr. W12 Nikolai Potapov: Bantamweight contender Joshua Greer Jr (21-1-1, 12 KOs) got all he could handle and more from fellow world rated Nikolai Potapov (20-2-1, 11 KOs) in a razor thin fight that could have gone either way. Naturally Potapov's promoter Dmitriy Salita feels that his fighter got the short end of the stick, "We feel we got robbed as do the boxing fans, ESPN which had Nikolai winning as well as the press. We are going to appeal the decision. ESPN is a great platform for the sport of boxing we are grateful for the opportunity, but what's just is just and Nikolai won the fight," said Salita. Even if he doesn't get the rematch, there's no doubt that Potapov will get other opportunities. Official scores were 114-114, 115-113, 116-112 for Greer (pictured). Source: ESPN
