Cards were a joke. Broner won 1-2 rounds max!

    Yeah there seemed to be a massive bias among pundits, boxers and of course those criminal judges. Completely agree with Robert...

    This will going to happen in the Canelo-GGG fight, even if GGG dominated with some KD's, he will still lose the
    fight. This I can guarantee.

    I had the score 11 - 1 and that's being very generous..........................

    El Pollo/Oscar will own the judges, referee, boxing commission and plan on cheating Golovkin. Watch El Pollo use his pecker to peck Golovkin in the testicles while Tony Weeks stops the fight. El Pollo's wing punches will not work.....................Charlo needs to fight Jacobs to earn a shot, beating a cripple does not do it................

    I think most people did.

    I said in a post after the Pac vs Horn fight, when I score a fight live I do it without any volume. That's so that I'm not listening to some wild cards/opinions. I only listen to the commentary when/if I watch the repeat.

    A classic case recently was the Teddy Atlas US ESPN commentary for that Pac vs Horn fight. The majority of people who thought Pac won had been listening to his BS lol.

    Back to the Garcia vs Broner fight, I think anything between 12-0 and 10-2 is about right. I didn't give Broner round 1 or 9, but I can see why some did. Round 1 Garcia, for me, was never troubled and held the middle of the ring well. Round 9 Broner caught Garcia with a good right at the end of the round, but other than that, I thought Broner did next to nothing and didn't think he did enough to win the round imo. Round 10, I gave it Broner. To me, he looked the busier fighter and landed with some big shots. That's the only round I thought he won. All in all, I thought it was an easy fight to score.

    I think that was round 9. I also gave that round to Garcia for the same reasons. Broner caught him with one good right at the end. Other than that one shot, Garcia was comfortably in charge of the round.

    I had the fight 120-108 for Mikey, but I could have given 1 or 2 round to Broner, maybe. 3 and 4 ? Hell no...

    I agree, as someone who went into the fight saying Broner
    would do better than everyone expected, I only gave him 2 clear rounds,
    there was the possibility that he could've won, one more. A slim
    possibility.

    I only gave AB round 1, and that was extremely close and could have went to Garcia.

    Bad cards get overlooked when the right guy wins but I agree those cards were awful. 4 rounds to Broner is shameful. 2 rounds max.

    Broner had a good case for winning the first, and was quite competitive in the ninth and tenth. Mikey had his moments in each of those rounds, but Broner did well enough in those frames-on their own and not just compared to others-that calling them for AB couldn't be considered egregious. Toss in the 8th, where Broner appeared to shake Garcia at the end to possibly steal it back and you can come up four.

    You can come up with a more lopsided score too, of course. Just pointing out that a path to a 116-112 card could be followed even if you chose not to do so. You could choose to call it 120-108, too. I personally split the difference and called it 118-110.

    Come at me :D

    This is what happens when fans continue to support bad decisions.

    All a fighter has to do now is make it to the final bell, and it's up for grabs. I wouldn't bet on a fight these days to save my life. What big money this sport has left is going to start walking.

    This fight was a shut out, easy to score.

    It certainly doesn't help when clowns like Easter Jr. and Jacobs are saying that they thought Broner won or did better than the judges score cards suggested... LOL. What fight were those two idiots watching?

    I do my own compubox. Broner didn't outland him in 1 but he out threw him

    That's just unfair to Charlo. It's not his fault his opponent was injured and didn't let anyone know before the fight. The deal was set before hand. The winner becomes the mandatory for 3G. Just because the fight did not go according to how you wanted, doesn't mean you screw Charlo. And another thing, why does Charlo need to earn a way to G, yet many people criticize Ward for having a few fights at light heavy before fighting Kov? Double standard?
