RBR'ers.... who are the forums best scorers?

@CST80's scores are always trash

 

Personally, I think both fights were clear win’s respectively. The third fight was clearer for me as the early rounds in the first fight were quite subjective, it depends on what you liked. GGG swept the middle rounds which won him the fight. In the third fight Canelo swept most the rounds and GGG came on and took the late ones but wasn’t enough

I tend to glance through a couple pages of scores to get an idea of how a fight is going rather than rely on any one poster.

 

Yes, that's the point, that the first fight was much closer on a RBR basis than the 3rd fight. Not only were the early rounds "subjective" (by that you surely mean Canelo "arguably" won them) but also the late rounds as well. Canelo "arguably" won 1-3 and 10-12. And then we have rounds 4-6 which were very tight as well.

When you say GGG swept the middle rounds, you gotta be specific. 4-6 were also very "subjective", those were far closer and more arguable for Canelo than rounds 1-8 were for GGG in the 3rd fight. Scoring the first fight for Canelo is more reasonable than scoring GGG won the 3rd fight, that we can agree on.

 

I don't know. It's been a long time since I actually paid attention to Pinoy's scores. I just know that I'd hear people jacking him off on more than one occasion when his score was dog****. Gradually, I came to disregard almost every scorer in the RBRs because they were all over the place and everyone insisted that if someone had just as bad a scorecard as they did that they were the GOAT. You cannot figure out what actually happened in a fight from our RBR threads. They are really more sources of camaraderie where we can watch a fight with friends, make fun of David Diamante's hair, and **** on national anthems.

 

****in' RIGHT!

 

Is this about the Hunter/Forrest 2 fight?

 

I agree. That was my point

 

Sometimes they are but not always. It is when he hates a fighter the blinkers go on like Shields vs Marshall this weekend. At best it was a 9-1 or 8-2 fight in Shields favour, yet he managed to score it 96-94 for Marshall, when even Marshall and her trainer Peter Fury accept they lost.
