    I have the same feeling, which annoys me since I like Joshua as a fighter.

    And the whole thing was just kinda swept under the rug. I’m not sure, but I believe we got some half assed excuse about, how they were testing the scorecards for the US broadcast because of the time difference. And then, everyone just kept quite after that.

    That doesn’t make sense to me, at all. Why not let all three cards show “114-114” or something like that, IF it were really true? Why have all three cards comfortably in Joshua’s favor?

    It was the Parker fight that blew me,to be clear I have AJ beating all his opponents so far pretty easy but the Ref was a disgrace in the Parker fight.
    Can’t get my head round how both AJ and Wilder go on about facing each other when both could lose,tells me something is off.

    Anthony Joshua vs. Roberto Cammarelle at 2012 London Olympics. Joke of a decision.

    I just watched the entire McDermott vs Fury fight now, and I scored it 98-22 to McDermott. Fury only won rounds 1 and 3 for me.

    Gustavo Padilla scoring 114-113 in favor of Shumenov over Hopkins is probably the worst one I have ever seen live.

    Adelaide Byrd 1180-110 Canelo over Golovkin was horrendous too.

    I remember the 118-110 card in the Burns Relikh fight being a joke.

    Judge Angelo Poletti ... who gave Roberto Duran three of the 15 rounds against Leonard in their Montreal fight, gave Leonard two of the 15 rounds, and scored the other 10 rounds EVEN.

    I wonder if there's ever been a sincere mix-up where a judge turned in the opposite of what they intended.

    Rios might have won the 6th but everything else was CLEARLY Abril.

    I agree, absolutely disgraceful from O'Connor.

    There was definitely a Matchroom card a few years ago where the judge got the fighters mixed up.

    Edit: It was Burnett v Haskins https://www.bbc.com/sport/boxing/40237875

    Sergio Martinez vs Paul Williams 1. One judge actually had 119-110 for Williams. Martinez was just chuckling when he heard that scorecard.
