    Imagine if the Vargas, or even the interviewer, threw racial slurs at Broner........

    It's disgusting man.


    And for all the arguments about 'favorable' judges/scorecards in the UK, everytime i watch a US card it stinks of BS/corruption.

    The last few US card's i've watched have included-


    Ortiz v Wilder - Wilder given 'extra' time.
    Hooker v Perez - The Draw in that made tonight's fight look like a 120-108 UD for Broner.
    Ward v Kovalev 1 + 2 - Both controversial.....But i was less concerned with the outcomes tbh.

    And now this.....

    I honestly didn't think poor judging was going to play into it. Guess I just don't know boxing well enough.

    Yup, but unlike WWE, you can change it if your opponent doesn't make it to the decision. That's why we love boxing.

    Say what you want about Broner, he's crude, loud, foulmouthed and uncivilized but this was the best fights that he has ever fought. I was leaning towards Vargas but I am ok with the draw. The only thing that took from the fight was Broner's Donald Trumplike articulation of the fight.

    Calling it shitty scoring skills is actually letting her off the hook.

    Shes doesnt have shitty skills.... shes a corrupt official.

    I expected they would giver Broner a very close, SD style controversial victory. Kinda surprised they didnt....

    LOL hahahaha man, that was good. I agree. Broner is so low though he probably would punch and kill Jim Gray , careless to get DQ-ed for life. Which is what i keep hoping happens to him eventually in one of his little stunts in or out of the ring

    I don't discuss PEDs with little kids. When he asked why GGG was fighting someone else I just told him Canelo had some legal issues and GGG wanted an easy fight again.

    Well, at least you didn't declare that betting on Vargas by T/KO was "printing money". I hope IB didn't take his own betting advice. Vargas was 6/1 for the stoppage over here, and that still wasn't enough to tempt me, let alone 2/1.

    Does Hooker vs Perez really belong in this conversation?

    He said something to the effect there were too many Mexicans in the crowd and they were booing him, eating rice and chicken.
