    He must have smoked the same stuff as weisfeild. Both should be removed from boxing.

    Objective, non bias, honest judging.

    People have different criteria and values when it comes to scoring...
     
  5. Boxing should not be scored with different criterias. There should be a universal way of scoring fights.

    Now I actually scored the fight for Prov, but no way did I score it 117-109. That's just ridiculous.

    Volume vs Hard effective punches.

    Provodnikov would be out worked every round but his punches where more telling, could see a judge favouring his work.

    It contrast the lesser puncher was constantly throwing and landing more many judges like to go for the guy throwing more.

    I have an issue with Judge Tom Shreck giving round 12 to Chris Algeri. Chris fought a fine fight but in that final round all he did was run he barely threw a meaningful punch, I thought it was Provo's best round since early in the fight. Chris even said in post fight he couldn't see in final round. If that round goes to Ruslan like the other two judges correctly scored it, the fight is a draw.

    Every brain is different. Some people are simply smarter than others.

    There is no possible way Algieri won the 12th...

    Don't worry Provo will be back to send another "sweet scientist" to hell, he just underestimated Algieri and his hometown judges.

    This is the billionth fight that shows boxing is a joke. The fact that nothing changes after a farce like this only confirms the first sentence.

    Bull****. Scoring criteria are pre-set for judges, not by them.

    Edit.: At least, that's how it should be.

    Don't the judges sit at different ares of the ring ? it's all about subjectiveness and what they actually saw or think they saw.
