Beterbiev was about to get robbed on the scorecards.

Bad scorecards. I picked Gvodzyk to win but Beterbiev was clearly ahead going into the 10th I had it 6-3.

 

I had it 5-4 to Beterbiev going into the 10th, the fight was close in scoring but Beterbiev always looked the boss.

No problems with the judges cards tbh.

 

How was he gonna get robbed when he was about to be up on all three cards after ten?

 

He was clearly going to win on two of the cards at least. I don't understand this OP.

 

My scorecard was the same. And even though I like both fighters, I was rooting a bit for Gvozdyk.

 

The one judge was in Arum's pocket. A common practice on Top Rank, Golden Boy, and PBC cards. One judge is there to pad the preferred fighters scorecard. You could tell who the preferred fighter was, by all the warnings, Beterbiev got for things that usually weren't his fault. Also the way that the ref protected Gvodzyk every time that Beterbiev got in close, by breaking them and not allowing Beterbiev to infight.

 

Gvozdyk had everything to beat Beterbiev but I think he wanted to fight inside to much against the more powerful Beterbiev. He should have stick to a more boxing game plan. Moving and jabbing.

 

It's not like Gvozdyk had a 118-110 card prefilled like Drugnelo.

 

I had it 6-3 to Beterbiev going into the 10th.

I could see how you could have it closer as the Nail was using his jab well and outlanding Beterbiev at points in the rounds. But the heavier and better punches were being landed by Beterbiev.

No way was the Nail ahead after 9 rounds. He was being ground down round by round.

 

I had it 7-2 Beterbiev. Beterbiev was blocking most of Gvozdyk's punches. Beterbiev was the aggressor throughout the fight and controlled the action. Even when Gvozdyk was fighting well it appeared Beterbiev was hurting Gvozdyk and was being worn down. He looked exhausted and worried early. That proved to be the case as the fight played out. Gvozdyk gave everything he had. Beterbiev is just the superior fighter. Stronger, tougher. The punch stats showed the number of punches landed were virtually identical and Beterbiev was landing the more damaging punches. That translates to a significant lead.

 

He had no choice. The game plan was always to stay outside but Beterbiev wouldn't allow it.

 

the score cards actually made no sense, one judge that gave beterbiev only 3 rounds gave him the first. with no knockdown that round wasnt even close, I was actually nervous. then beterbiev looked great in round 2...

yet all 3 judges gave beterbiev round 1 and all 3 gave gvosdyk round 2. when the exact oposit seemed true. the first 4 rounds felt like 3-1 either way or 2-2 were possible.

I only truley disliked the judge that only thought beterbiev won rounds 1-4 and 9 since I felt roundds 1 and 4 could have easily went to gvosdyk...

the crowd was so PRO Gvosdyk and it wasnt far from canada and it didnt seem like people made the trip.. with how Gvosdyk was in the corner before round 10. there was no way he would win one more single round so it would have been a split D

 

The median scorecard from everywhere was Beterbiev up 1 point.
