I know that was a draw but I felt that was incredibly unfair on Beltran. I felt he won by at least 3 rounds and that is after giving Burns all of the close rounds and not taking into account all of the holding he was allowed to get away with. I have nothing against Eddie Hearn but his cards seem to have the most biased judging over here, two of the score cards in the Froch vs. kessler fight were a joke in my opinion.
Sickening robbery. I had Beltran winning 117-110, he was landing most of the the harder, cleaner more effective punches throughout the fight.
Yeah I completely agree mate. Sometimes I really dislike this business. Fair enough he has all of the excuses about his jaw but Ray should be the champion and they should be going into a rematch. I honestly think with a fair refferee Ricky Burns would have been stopped, he should have had at least one point deducted for all of that holding.
Not sure a point deduction for holding,Wlad does much the same stuff at times. Burns had little option really with his jaw hanging off and jab not working. Beltran won it for me
Yeah I agree mate, I usually score fights by thinking about how the judges will score it and how I think it should be scored. I was thinking it should be about 116-111 in favour of Beltran but I expecting something like 115-112, 115-113, 115-113 in favour of Beltran since it was over here. This is just incredibly unfair and I really think after all of the effort Beltran put in he should be going home a world champion.
It's devasting watching Beltran's interview here he is nearly crying. He isn't even holding it against Ricky Burns, he just says it as it is they just have a plan for one guy and they use their power to protect him. He deserves a rematch in America, if this was really a sport he would get at least that.
All burns seems he has to do to keep his title, is keep fighting in shitland and surviving, **** boxing, just hold and survive and you'll retain your title,
