I can believe I am writting this but Win Boulton. His best showing in years. On paper Orr should have destroyed him.

this should be f.o.t.w. and a candidate for f.o.t.y. No kissin and huggin here just to tuff guys throwing bombs. Absloutly great fight and a "W" for Orr as i think he gets the nod this time!

Give up on the back of the head and throw some lets Colton! Great fight, excellent counter punching by Boulton. Tough to call, but I'm going to throw the W Orr's way.

I'm hoping this is the year Orr takes over as the leagues top heavy.

I give the edge to Boulton for landing the better punches. Orr beat into the back of Boulton's head, but Orr took some nice shots in his face.

This fight is such an obvious draw but it's insane how many Orr homers are out there, almost 50% giving a win to Orr in what amounts to a DRAW. I know you love the guy but he didn't win this fight nor did he lose it, they beat the crap out of each other, both bloodied, both dead tired, and most importantly, both standing at the end. Text book draw. Some people sure need to grow up and wake up.

After looking at it again, at least 95% of Orr's punches missed or hit Boulton on the helmet, he hit him with maybe 2-3 good shots while Boulton threw far less, his punches were accurate and damaging and you can easily see it at the end, without the Ranger Blue colored glasses on anyway, that Orr was done and wanted the fight to end.

One guy throwing a bunch of punches and missing doesn't mean he wins.

Orr throws many more punches, but probably only comes out with sore knuckles, as only a few of his flurry land square. Boulton finally gets loose to throw some bombs, possibly staggering Orr late in the bout, but the lack of punch attempts keeps him on the lower end of my scorecard. Very good match, but a slight advantage to Orr.

Draw ... not sure why so many are voting for Orr - even if you like the guy you gotta try to be unbiased

Orr landed more punches but Boulton landed the better punches so I gave it a draw

Best fight in 2 seasons. Draw.

Yet another NHL tough guy makes Orr his biatch! Win Boulton with that great strategy. He let Orr punch himself out by doing nothing more than hitting Boulton's helmet, and then he owned Orr big time. That shot direct to Orr's face that knocked his helmet off definitely put him out on his feet for a couple seconds. Orr didn't even know where he was, you could tell by his facial expression. Blood and number of punches thrown does not make anyone a winner. I give this gladly and easily to Boulton.

I'm going with Boulton in this one, I tried to count the punches, I had Orr with 43 and Boulton with 19 (mostly late) ... but at about Orr's 30th punch, Boulton seems to land TWO doozies; that didn't even slow down Orr.

GREAT battle all the way around, can't believe the B's let Colton get away for nothing; he would have been a crowd favorite.

Orr for the number of punches, Boulton for the quality of punches. If it's goals, they don't ask how, just how many. In fights, different story.
