    It’s straight up corruption. There is no other way to look at it.

    One of whom was blatantly gifted the result.

    Round 9 is quite literally a 3 point turnaround on two of the cards.

    Any word on whether the Roach camp is going to appeal?

    I was not scoring on A side or B side just on what I witnessed which was high level skills. Many people whose opinions I respect had it either for Tank ora draw so I don’t think the judges were biased however many on here simply hate Tank so are conditioned to award points to his opponents.

    Appeal what? They have nothing to appeal and the regulators cannot change the results otherwise they will be sued and bankrupted and rightly so.

    Didn't there used to be a rule classified as " uninvited coaching on the appron " which iirc used carry an automatic point deduction , I could be wrong on this though , can anyone clarify the rules on this for me please?

    Not sure but I heard someone say that taking a knee and then running over to his corner to get his cornerman to wipe his eye should technically be a DQ loss. I don't know if that's true or not but if Roach or anyone else had done that the ref may well have DQ'd them

    Yep you are not allowed to give instructions to your fighter when there is a break during the round you even hear some refs say to the corner stay quiet when a fighters mouth piece comes out during the round and they call time to put in the spare one.

    All I know is that I've seen a Pitbull and a Roach beat a Tank.

    Only in boxing... the greatest sport in the world.

    Yeo I clearly recall that being the case in castilo v corales 1 when chicos mouthpiece came out and Goosen was coaching on the appron but that went unpunished as well .

    Yes it is true the corner unless instructed by the referee should not be on the ring apron during the round. They are only ever called up for example to fix loose tape or change a mouth guard.

    Correct and they need inviting up by the ref and like you also said the ref tells um " no coaching "
    This was either corruption of the highest order " or just a brain fart by the ref , I wanna believe it's the latter but I've also got a terrible mind .

    So what you're essentially saying here is not only was Tank thoroughly exposed, hurt, dropped by a jab, and beaten by a featherfisted 130 pounder cherrypick but he also should've been stopped by them due to his corner breaking the rules?
