    Hold on a minute aren't you usually defending the judges scorecards ? You tried to justify the 119-109 scorecard in the Karen vs Boots fight recently and I've seen you do it many other times.

    So going by your logic my scorecard is perfectly fine it's in total agreement with the 3 judges.

    I think Taylor having next to zero personality doesn't help. Not her fault, but she's not exactly likeable, unlike Serrano who always comes across as bubbly and loving life, so people naturally want to root for her. Shame about her weird brother-in-law, who always comes across as a massive creep. Way too weird and touchy with her considering he's married to her sister. Bad bad vibes from that guy, always seems to want to make it about him. Amazing fight anyhow. I do think Taylor seems to get a lot of luck with decisions, but they're always absolute wars that simply cannot be called robberies due to how close and exciting they are. The biased commentary feigning outrage after the decision was pretty dumb and unprofessional. It's okay to think the other person won, without trying to cause a controversy about it.

    Serrano was the deserved winner but it was close, can't call it a big robbery.

    Taylor is the GOAT for women's boxing. Huge crossover in popularity and she always gives 110%. Needed to retire a few years ago for me. She's half the fighter she was.

    I agree with you regarding the fact Katie should retire.She has been in some really gruelling fights and has shipped some heavy punishment that will surely affect her health in the future. Eddie and the rest of her team need to do their duty

    This is a fight I'm going to have to rescore at some point, this is when I started experiencing buffering issues and when my stream was delayed a few rounds. I was going off of the scorecard of the posters who's opinion I hold in high regard to form my opinion on the fight since I only clearly saw the last 3 rounds in which it seemed Serrano was getting the better of Taylor. The replay on Netflix is the same live stream with buffering issues. It's going to be a waiting game to see it in its entirety unfortunately.

    100 more punches don't sound that close

    The only thing that is disgraceful is this post.

    Bowe landed over 100 more punches than Holyfield in their 2nd fight and most felt Holyfield edged Bowe in a close fight you can't score fights on compubox which are not accurate anyway.

    As Texans say, I don't have a dog in this hunt. I've seen enough from both women to admire their warrior spirit and boxing skills.

    However, Taylor's headbutting in this fight was obvious even to the most casual of observers. She deliberately led with her head all night. And held Okolie-like as well. Some idiot said in here "get over it; that's boxing". Or really? If it's "just boxing" then why can a referee take a long away from a head butter? It wa shocking it really was.

    No, I didn’t agree with it. I pointed out how it wasn’t that far off.

    As for you, you missed the part where Serrano pulled away with the fight in the last two rounds, out landing Taylor by 55 punches.

    Yeah, compubox, everyone favorite statistic, that’s only seen as valid when it suits their own point of view…

    Anyone with eyes could see she didn’t land 100 more punches…..

    Yeah because fights are scored on compubox if you honestly believe Serrano landed 73 punches on Taylor in 2 minutes then I don't know what to tell you.
