    Good or modest? Ryder won that fight. But ... That was plain robbery. Robbed all the way was Ryder. Disgusting.

    I never saw that coming pal, you called it right from the start, hats off to you. Ryder has been absolutely robbed, boxing has been absolutely robbed and everyone has been robbed of what should be a beautiful story.

    Ryder won it hands down, listening to Bellew on sky is embarrassing,everyone in the crowd knew Ryder won it.

    Feel really bad for Ryder as he gave his all and won that fight only to be robbed by the usual suspects.

    Canelo probably watched that shaking his head and thinking (in spanish) "wow i've been given some dodgy cards but nothing like this !"

    I just can't see any argument for a Smith win let alone any of those cards.

    What disturbs me is guys like Lee and Bellew going along with it. Lee almost apologised for having the fight even midway through and when Ryder got more on top, Lee suddenly had Smith ahead. Someone obviously had a word in his ear. Bellew is the biggest matchroom cheerleader of them all.

    Whatever about judges and promoters being bent, but commentators also reading a script is awfully frustrating.

    i was disappointed with Lee. The guy knows his stuff and is a good commentator but you could tell in the last few rounds he was towing the Sky line and forcing himself to ignore the fact Ryder was taking Smith apart .

    I have no expectations of Bellew other than to talk rubbish very loudly and annoyingly in a whining voice.

    100%. It was blatantly obvious what he was doing. He sounded so indecisive, like somebody was in his ear.
