    Yeah it reminded me of Canelo vs Smith.

    A fixed card from one of the judges. It happens all the time. People need to get out their fantasy life just like real life world events and stop claiming its down to incompetence.

    I had a bet on Martin Murray "to win in rounds 7-12 or points" and skybet have put the bet down as a non winner? How does that work? Does it have to by UD?

    Crazy scorecards but the right man won. A bit of tension between the two produced some provocative comments all round.

    Didn't realise that Murray's daughter is in hospital, wish his family all the best.

    119-109 was incompetent which ever way you look at it. Bad scoring, awful fixing...

    I agree. Rosado was doing some nice counter punching and Murray just couldn't get his rythm going and should have lost like Smith lost.

    Poor man's Canelo-Smith :thumbsup:

    I don't mind controversial decisions but come on.

    This card was full of bad decisions, I reckon Eddie Hearn is getting too powerful in the UK (not that I like Frank Warren any better, but still ...)

    That explains his out-of-character outburst perhaps

    Murray once again proved what an average fighter he is, he's good at almost winning, he's at best a frustrating fighter that can make people look bad to average, that is all. The support he gets for rightfully earning a draw against Sturm and rightfully losing to Maravilla has always annoyed the **** out of me, he lost to AA as well. I've always found him repellant and his post fight interview did nothing to change that.

    That judge just lost his future as a boxing judge. Bye.

    There's a difference between incompetence and fixing. Incompetent would mean he's just not fit for the job and made a big mistake.

    That wasn't incompetence... That was a fix

    With all due respect this version of Murray was pretty poor.

    Yeah probably. He left the weigh in early to see his kid, Rosado arrived late and got teasy as Murray had already left

    Yeah I think you missed my point... 'incompetent fixing'. A smart fix would be closer. no?
