    They are showing the replay of Stevenson right now Plank. 23-0 against international competition, comes from Newark, NJ where I was born and named after Tupac.

    That's the dirty little secret in combat sports. There aren't really that many refs or judges so a small handful wind up officiating over hundreds of fights. The community is so small that even incompetent ones get a lot of work. CJ Ross judged 462 fights, not just the Mayweather and Pacquiao fights. Her judging includes a who's who of the sport for the last twenty years. I guarantee you those aren't the only two fights she screwed up. And there is no mechanism in place to remove incompetent judges or promote good ones.

    Who would you pick to win? Super hard call for me, given it's only 3 rounds. Stevenson I think is the faster fighter, which may just give him the edge over such a short distance.

    The 91kg final was one of the worst decisions in a long time. The Michael Conlon fight was just a close fight.

    I think IABA ruined their chances for becoming THE professional boxing in this Olympics.
    It's credibility is being destroyed
