    Boxers pay people to look after their financial well being. They need us to cheer on how much they earn.

    As fans of boxing, we want to see the best fight the best, not just see how much they earn.

    Maybe you do, but boxers want to earn maximum profit rather than fight best.

    It is mathematically impossible in a 10 points system without a deduction. There was not a point deduction in the fight.

    Anyone who scored it 112 don't know **** about scoring.

    You can not score it 9 - 9 without a deduction in a 10 point system. If it is an even rnd it is 10 - 10 . Hence the 10 point system. If any fighter is given a 9 it means they lost the rnd. For both to get it means a point deduction. If you are telling us a Judge actually did this then they weren't using the 10 point must system. But all professional fights are on a 10 point must, this judge needs to never judge a fight again.

    You cannot compare, past a certain threshold adding weight is linked with a loss of speed, coordination, explosivity...
    That's why there isn't that much huge guys at hw

    But we aren't boxers, we have no personal allegiance to boxers, we don't care how much money boxers make.

    We are fans, we want to see the best fight the best.

    If all you care about is what makes the most money you should join a finance forum.

    If you have looked after boxers or care for them you will want them to make as much money as possible. It’s about perspective.

    absolutely. As soon as Fury started slowing down, he started grappling.

    I'm glad it didn't ruin the fight for you. DAZN's live broadcasts been pretty consistently crap from the get go.
