    The judges weren't from britain.

    I agree, terrible scoring though.

    That was a robbery! I am wondering, and even the commentators were wondering why Barker's corner were so calm, and virtually felt they had it in the bag. Could that reason be that, they were safe in the knowledge that the French kid was never gonna win a decision. Total bull****. 118-110???? where did that comr from? I challenge anyone to watch this fight and score it, the french kid even got a few of the earlier rounds. I dunno it seems no one comes here and gets a decision. I didn't want to believe that before, but I am starting to come around to the idea. I think there is some serious sleazy **** going on here.

    We really can't accuse the Germans of this anymore, I think an away fighter needs a knock out to win.

    A bit melodramatic...scores were bad but they got the right guy IMO.

    Agree with the OP I had the Frenchie winning by a couple of rounds.

    Right guy won comfortably. Too many on here copy skys scorecard and use it as there own with no facts or knowledge of the sport to back it all on.

    I thought the result was right but the scoring was atrocious.

    I thought Barker edged it. But Belgncham deserves a second shot. But the 118-110 was a disgrace.

    How could the Frenchie win by a couple of rounds when he didn't get into the fight until the seventh round? He was outclassed in the first 6 rounds, some were competetive but Barker had a decisive edge in all of them.

    Too many people on here jump on the hype train and only see the fighter they follow landing.

    It should have been close. Maybe a split but Frenchie got robbed with those margins.

    Haha right guy won comfortably, good one, was getting pummelled in the second half, if Belghecham had any power, Barker would have been stopped.

    If we disregard, that idiotic 118-110 card, and look at the other 2 cards, which were a couple of rounds up for Barker, why would a corner have been so calm, and complacent with it being so close? it was obvious the second half of the fight swung in the French guy's favour. Something stinks rotten here about this. Also seemed Barker knew all he had to do was survive to get the decision.

    I dunno guys, something just doesn't set right with me about this fight. Or am I blowing it out of proportion? :patsch

    I thought he won a couple of the first six, I dont see how he was outclassed at all.

    one card was spot on on

    one was a bit wide but not ridiculous

    the third was **** poor and has caused this thread imo

    they got the right guy so lets not cry foul
