    Just have to mention McCallum-Toney II, since no one else has. Thought McCallum won that one clearly. The judges having Toney winning with seven or so points must have been on the take. I think the one having a draw was extremely charitable to Toney as it was.

    I will do. I think the next ones I watch will be pac-marquez and ali-norton but i'll make that one after. I'm hoping to put my scores on here.

    Cracking scrap. Look also at Quartey - DLH, Sturm - DLH for robberies. Also, and this stops here, Lewis - Vitali scoring through 6. I had Vitali well up.

    Sadly, commentators do affect some viewers' scores. A university once did an expriment where it showed a fight with the real commentary to a class of 10, who all scored for Fighter A, who was the clear winner; a separate class were shown the same fight but with new commnentary dubbed over, favouring the loser, 8 out of 10 voted for Fighter B. :!::D


    I quite like disagreeing with the commentators myself if need be. I lambasted Darke in Boxing Monthly years ago over the McCallum-Toney fight for having his head up Mike's arse so much. Carpenter couldn't score a fight that well either; Reg could though, he was right on the money many a time. And the less said about Mike Marley's cards, when he was co-commentator on Sky in the early 1990s, the better. :yep

    If you could turn the sound of Lampley and Kellerman off, but leave punch sound off, fine. BIAS with commentary, they might sway your judgement.
