This was posted on multiple boxing forums and the website the Boxing Tribune has shared it on their Facebook as well. It will be sent to the Texas Commission once it has enough signatures and then certain groups will be constantly bothering the commissions with phone calls and emails until they take steps to stop robberies and punish judges. This has not been done before to this extent but thanks to forums and Facebook, people can connect and finally fight back. It will start with Texas apparently and then go to other states/countries. Sign it and spread the word! Clean up the sport. :bbb http://www.change.org/petitions/tex...orecards-that-are-poorly-scored-or-inaccurate The petition is now being supported by Yahoo. Excellent news for the cause! http://sports.yahoo.com/box/news;_ylt=Ajd2KLzj2dOAl5PTZ5Aubt6UxLYF?slug=ycn-11170398
The corruption is so much spread for their to be a real solution. Yeah, the petition if better that nothing, but the reality is that it will fizzle and lead to nothing. We need boxing news websites to offer this petition on their front page as a "sticky." We need respected boxing news journalist to climb aboard and want to do something about the corruption. This unfortunately will not happen because the media itself is part of the problem. So many of them are bought off by the higher ups themselves. The media itself does not offer solutions to halt the corruption and there is good reason for them not to offer those solutions. That reason is themselves. ......and for those few journalist that would like to make a difference? There is someone that hires them that will see to it that does'nt happen. Corruption has long been here in boxing and unfortunately it will always be with the sport. There is not a damn thing anyone can do. Boxing=Corruption
