Yeah Yeah I know it’s MMA but I’m posting this here for a reason. So basically what happened is that the biggest cashcow in UFC history had a fight with a Russian guy who actually is not even Russian (Dagestani, even smaller fanbase, less PPV buyers) Khabib won the first round and ALL 3 judges had it 10-9 Khabib. Khabib won the second round, also had a knockdown and ALL 3 judges had the second round 10-8 for Khabib, correctly. Conor landed more punches in the 3rd round, ALL 3 judges had it 10-9 Conor. The fight was over in the 4th round, so scorecards didn’t really matter but it was exactly the same for all 3 judges and they scored correctly. My point is, that in UFC there is no F corruption, and even if you are the biggest cashcow in the game, the judges won’t protect you at all. Boxing must start to learn from UFC. I’m a Golovkin fan, but I’m not talking about only the 2 GGG-Canelo fight, I’m also talking about the Joshua scorecards, the Mayweather scorecards, how was Wilder ahead of Ortiz, how is it possible that the Smith-Groves fight was scored by 59-55 for Smith on one judgescorecard, and 59-55 for Groves on the other judge’s scorecard? Etc., etc., etc.... Khabib won the fight, and he is still the champion, but UFC gonna force him to fight against Tony Ferguson (mandatory) as next fight. Khabib-McGregor did 2.7M PPV. Corrupt scoring and ridiculous match ups should stop, because UFC already took over.
Can’t wait for the Joshua-Whyte rematch, or the Joshua-Usyk fight. Canelo-Rocky is also very reasonable.
Ive always seen home town decisions all across the world, when i were a kid Italy was the only place pure robberies took place, Everywhere else you had to win well to win but fights that were really close you felt it was going to the home fighter. But its got worse and worse and worse and there are some real blatant straight up robberies these days and although it isnt proven we know there is straight up corruption behind some of it. I dont know much about the UFC but theres no competition within it beyond the actual fights themselves. Its all under 1 single franchise, one man at the top making the decisions its in his best interests to allow fights to play out to their natural conclusion. Thats nothing like Boxing which is not under just 1 roof it is a big mixture of promoters, networks, all those organisations with all those belts, commissions, all these people who get payouts from this sport, all competing for all sorts of things. Rules are going to be bent and broken where ever and when ever they can for somebody to gain an advantage. And unlike in the ring there is no referee out in the Boxing world, they can do what ever they want and other than loads of people moaning about it they are just guna get away with it, and thats where we come to these blatant robberies amongst many other things, sometimes theres no hiding from a bad result, so they dont, they just pull off a robbery, so ****ing what whose gonna do anytihng?
I’m fairly certain he did http://boxrec.com/en/boxer/356831 Reading will pass the time while you wait for your wallet to be returned...good luck mate
There's plenty of robberies/rehearsed fights in the MMA too. HBO witnessed the increased trend and decided to pack it up.
